Narrative:
I was working the ground control east position. Due to the weather and runway use plan we were departing all turn departures off of runway 16R. I issued taxi instructions to aircraft Y to taxi via K; hold short runway 17 at K5. The read back was full and correct. I then was scanning the east side taxiways trying to pick the aircraft up visually. I then noticed an asde-X target moving towards the runway at K2 without a data block. I went over to the local east controller; and pointed out the aircraft; who then canceled the takeoff clearance of aircraft X that was on departure roll. I issued instructions for the aircraft Y to exit the runway; which he did. He then complied with all other instructions and departed without incident. Recommendation; issued phraseology not in accordance with the 7110.65. I issued 'taxi via K hold short runway 17 at K5 and expect runway 16R for departure'. I did this because I have issued the instruction per the 7110.65 and had numerous problems in this same area; including several runway incursions. I was intending to give this aircraft progressive instructions. I believe that in circumstances such as this that there needs to some latitude for ground controllers to use more effective phraseology when controlling aircraft near trouble spots.
