fountains
Jets of water
Fountains is the plural of fountain—structures that send water into the air, either naturally as springs or artificially as decorative features in parks and plazas.
Drinking fountains dispense water for public use.
Figuratively, a fountain is any abundant source: a fountain of knowledge, a fountain of youth.
The verb form means to flow upward like a fountain: Blood fountained from the wound.
