jugular

Die woord "jugulêr" kan verskillende betekenisse hê, afhangende van die konteks, maar die primêre definisie daarvan hou verband met anatomie. "jugularis" is 'n byvoeglike naamwoord wat iets beskryf wat verband hou met of naby die nek of keel geleë is, spesifiek met verwysing na die halsaar, wat 'n groot aar in die nek is wat bloed van die kop na die hart vervoer. "jugular" kan egter ook in 'n meer figuurlike sin gebruik word om iets te beskryf wat krities of lewensbelangrik is, soos in die frase "going for the jugular", wat beteken om 'n belangrike deel of saak aan te val om te wen of slaag. In hierdie konteks impliseer die woord 'n gevoel van aggressie of intensiteit om 'n doel na te streef.
