To suddenly cry out or exclaim something loudly; to eject forcefully.
From Latin 'eiaculdatus' meaning to throw out, from e- (out) + iaculari (to throw). The word originally just meant sudden utterance before developing additional biological meanings.
This word is a great example of how meanings drift—it started as 'threw out words suddenly,' which Shakespeare and Victorian authors used totally differently than modern usage suggests!
