Shaming? I made an effort to make sure that we were all okay and no one was upset or offended by my unimportant off-hand comment. But no, I’m still shaming people.

Yes, you are shaming someone by telling them their usage of a word was used correctly but they shouldn’t use it because they should only write in English. Also, who would be offended? Chefs and servers would want you to use the correct word. If you ordered prime rib with gravy but meant au jus, you wouldn’t get what you ordered.
