Morphology

ejaculate = e + jaculate

Although built from Latin ex- + a throwing stem, the internal stem 'jaculate' is not a productive or recognizable English morpheme and the sexual biomedical meaning cannot be derived by a typical learner from the visible parts.

Etymology

Ejaculate comes from Latin parts e- 'out' and iaculare 'to throw', and is like the English word eject which means 'to throw out'. So it literally means to 'throw out' quickly, which helps explain the sudden release of semen, the male reproductive fluid, during orgasm.
