Pronunciation: [d͡ʒˈʌts] (IPA) 
Juts is a word that has a silent 't' at the end. Its IPA phonetic transcription is /dʒʌts/. The 'j' in the spelling is pronounced like the 'j' in the word 'jump', and the 'u' is pronounced like the 'u' in the word 'hut'. The 't' is not pronounced, and the final sound is just the 's' sound. Juts means to extend outward or to stick out, and it is commonly used in sentences like "The balcony juts out from the building."
Juts is a verb that is commonly used to describe an object or part of an object that extends out or projects forcefully in a particular direction, often in a sharp or abrupt manner. It signifies a protrusion or an extension that is both visible and noticeable due to its distinctiveness in comparison to the surrounding area or surface.
The term is frequently associated with physical objects such as rocks, cliffs, buildings, or other architectural elements. For example, one might say, "The massive boulder juts out from the hillside," which indicates that the boulder forcefully projects from the hillside in a prominent and noticeable manner. Similarly, one could mention how "The balcony juts out from the side of the building," to convey the fact that the balcony extends outwards from the structure, creating a noticeable extension.
The term "juts" can also be used metaphorically to describe non-physical entities. In this sense, it refers to something that stands out or distinguishes itself in a noticeable and often unconventional way. For example, someone might say, "Her creative ideas jut out from the rest," indicating that her ideas are distinctive and markedly different from others.
Overall, whether used to describe physical extensions or metaphorically, the term "juts" denotes a forceful projection or extension that stands out from its surroundings, drawing attention to itself.
The word "juts" is derived from the Middle English verb "jutten", which originated from Old French "juter" or "juter", meaning "to project or stick out". The Old French term can be traced back to the Latin verb "jactare", which means "to throw" or "to thrust". Through the evolution of language, "juts" emerged as the present tense form of "jutten" and is used to describe something that sticks out or projects prominently.
