jetter — TO THROW AWAY

[jhe-TEH] (v.) When one is on a sinking ship (a literal one), it behooves one to throw things overboard in an effort to buy some added buoyancy and a little time. Once sunk, a ship will often also spill its load. As all this washes ashore or ends up on the ocean floor it can be divided into flotsam and jetsam. The difference is of great interest to Marine Insurance writers who consider things that floated off (flotsam) to be a free-for-all. However, things that were thrown off purposefully—or jettisoned—are considered the boat owner's property and can be reclaimed. These are called jetsam, a word derived from the French jetter, which means to throw away. 

jaune — YELLOW

[(d)JOAN] (n. m.) You know you've got issues if your ears are turning red from guilt, your face is green with envy and you've got jaundiced eyes. The latter is thought to mean that you have a prejudiced view and it's the only one of these symptoms of real medical concern. Jaundice occurs in people that have an increase in bilirubin, a yellowish compound found in urine and bile, in the extracellular fluids. It gives the afflicted a yellow tint to the face and, more obviously, the eyes. Jaundice comes from the phonetically similar French word jaunisse, which means yellowness, and its cousin jaune, which means yellow.
