The only way to do this if you don't use your real name and mail your publisher cards and presentation letter to the new cong... but I don't see why go through all this trouble.

Thanks everyone! It is true that currently JW's don't use this term from the platform. What's interesting is to see the different terms they make us use in order to avoid any comparison with the Catholics.
If you use the word communion (in spanish COMUNION) it automatically refers to Catholics among the Latin community. Therefore my take is that it is just another way to be different.
But in our day to day conversations as JW, ( I am still in) we do use disfelloship or (expel in spanish)

Very good points... But I am trying to find out why among Spanish JW's we still use the word expulsado in Spanish which means expel vs. disfellowship.

When I look up the word disfellowship, this is what I found:
disfellowship [?d?s'f?l????p]
vb-ships, -shipping, -shippedUS, -ships-shiping, -shiped(tr) (Christian Churches, other) to excommunicate My question is the following: JW's never use the word excommunicate in english or spanish. Why the difference??

What do you mean?! I ALWAYS go to the beach after service and wear long pants and button up shirts while I play a game in the sand with my family! Sometimes I wear button up long sleeve shirts too!
by Crisis of Conscience inthe wts likes to imply how jws should dress in and outside of the hall.
you always want to set an example.. so i couldn't help but share this beauty in the january 15th, 2013, study edition of the watchtower.
i always go to the beach like this!

You are not the only... I am still in the Borg and it hurts when I see these foolish presentations of reality. Just like the pictures in paradise where everyone is wearing long sleeves and slacks.
