IMO the signal is what is most important. The verbiage is just a backup. In a loud gym it might even be inaudible.
That said, I like to stick to one word whenever possible:
"Carry", "Illegal" (sometimes I say "double"), "Travel," etc.
For foul reporting, most are already one word, (two for "hand check"), but for illegal use of the hands I just say, "hit."
Brevity is your friend.
