Here is a basic list of TW and Subspace "Jargon" (Some are not Subspace specific):
Newb, newbie, noob, n00b, nub and similar words:
This, by definition means someone who is new to the game. It's often used in "trash talking" people as well, generally a derogatory comment.
Laggot:
If someone is called a laggot, it generally means they lag. Again, it is derogatory.
Eat / Eater / Tank:
If someone eats, it means a bomb/bullet hits them but they don't die, this is generally due to the bomb not hitting them on their own client (thus their client not telling the server they've died.) It can sometimes be due to random damage (see dud), or if a bomb is shot at point blank range it might not kill.
Dud:
The bullet damage is random in most arenas, every now and again, the bullets will not kill, when this happens, the bullet is known as a dud.
Lame:
Anything that is considered "not nice", includes but is not restricted to spawning, vulching, TKing, etc.
TK:
Teamkill - When you kill someone on your own team/frequency
OR
Typekill - When you kill someone whilst they are typing
Spawn:
The area in which people respawn
OR
The act of killing (also called spawnkilling) someone straight after they or you have respawned without giving them a chance to dodge or fight back.
Vulch:
When you kill someone who is fighting with someone else, often when they have low energy from having just shot at them.
Lure:
When you lure someone into a position or into shooting that allows you to get an easy kill.
LT / LevTerr:
A Leviathan attached to a terrier that roams a public arena firing it's powerful bombs into the base. Gets many kills but is considered lame by many players.
NS:

NT:

GG:

GL:

HF:

GTFO:

STFU:
