jus
Thin pan sauce
Jus is the French word for juice, used in cooking to mean the natural juices released by meat during roasting, often reduced into a thin sauce: roast beef served au jus, lamb with its own jus.
In legal contexts, jus is Latin for law or right, appearing in terms like jus sanguinis (citizenship by blood) and jus soli (citizenship by birthplace).
