Morphology

ejaculate = e + jaculate

The figurative sense 'to say something suddenly' is derivable as a metaphorical extension of 'throw out' (ex- + throwing stem), but the stem itself is not a recognizable modern English morpheme, so it is only partially transparent.

Etymology

Ejaculate comes from Latin parts e- 'out' and iaculare 'to throw', and you can think of it like eject or project. So to ejaculate a word or cry is to 'throw out' a sudden sound or remark, which is why it means to say something suddenly and loudly.
