Usage of "Jargon"

Dear Teachers:

Is the following sentence correct?

"After three months of study, many fancy jargon about computers were becoming friends to me."

I understand that I cannot use "jargons", but don't know how to use it to refer to "technical terms/words".

Thanks a lot for your guidance.

Stone.

In what situation can we say JARGONS?

A discipline has its own jargon; if there's more than one discipline, can we say:

-Computer and physics jargons are different things.
