The part of the human body that tightens and moves down to create lower air pressure in the lungs than in the outside environment, allowing air to move into the lungs. This part then relaxes and moves back up, generating higher air pressure in the lungs than the outside environment, forcing carbon dioxide out of the lungs. This part also separates the chest cavity (cardiovasuclar and respiratory) from the abdominal cavity (digestive system), which is why your chest expands as you breathe. Also that fancy part of an air horn that rapidly vibrates in response to air movement, generating that screeching sound.
(From Business Insider) "When you take a breath in, your diaphragm tightens and is pulled down to allow your lungs to expand. When you exhale, your diaphragm relaxes and is pushed back up to expel the air from your lungs."

There are two definitions used in different contexts:
(In singing)
1. A muscle in your lower chest under your lungs. Many singers and theater kids know this definition due to how often it is mentioned by singing teachers. You can feel yourself use it most whenever you are about to sleep or whenever you are breathing without thinking.
(In sex/contraceptives)
2. A round disk inserted into a vagina to prevent sperm from reaching the egg and getting a woman pregnant. It is about 88% effective due to improper use. It is best used with spermicide. Very few women chose to use diaphragms because of their lower efficacy as well as the need to see a doctor to get one.

1. "Activate your diaphragm! Aim your voice out, don't sing under your breath. I can't hear you!"
2. "I use a diaphragm, but it's a bit of a hassle. I might just use pills. What do you think?"

Swelling and pain in the upper abdomen, commonly associated with the over consumption of fajitas and nachos. Only known treatment is to indulge in a White Magnum
Joe had exploding diaphragm last night. He probably shouldn't have eaten those Fajitas. It was alright though because he ate a white magnum before there were any further complications
