That said I understand the lingo here may differ, and I try to accustom myself to that...not for long though, as my Premier Gold (better?) will kick in as early as friday.

UA Silver means Premier Silver. One small benefit of UA Silver is *S status. When you mention *S, even if you put UA near it, it is confusing because it sounds like you're getting the status from a different airline.

As for UA Gold, that you should definitely not refer to as *G, because that's ambiguous between several levels in the UA program.
