Talk their talk

 It is not necessary to shout, said Mr Ellis, you just need to learn to talk their talk. 'The method has a lot more effect than conventional methods because it is in a language they can understand,' he said.

What exactly does 'talk their talk' mean?
Thanks.

You could substitute the phrase "speak their language". Not necessarily a foreign language, but rather a way of speaking, perhaps an unusual use of language or using unusual vocabulary or phrases. It could be a technical language, for example.
