Examples

“As Tarzan walked down the wild cañon beneath the brilliant African moon the call⟳ of the jungle was strong upon him. The solitude and the savage freedom filled his heart with life and buoyancy. Again he was Tarzan of the Apes—every sense⟳ alert against the chance of surprise⟳ by some jungle enemy—yet treading lightly and with head erect, in proud consciousness of his might.”

“It’s a jungle out there.”

“The first-timer just doesn't know⟳ what's going on when he gets to jail. […] It's a jungle, you've got to look⟳ after yourself first.”

“But of course, that excludes the narcissistic delusionals, the deliberate frauds, and the pathological cases of multiple personality. They are all out there in New Age Land⟳, and it's a jungle!”

“[…] lost in such a jungle of intrigues, pettifoggings, treacheries, diplomacies domestic and foreign […]”

“Always more multiracial than other post-Rave scenes, Hardcore got “blacker” as hiphop, Ragga, dub and Soul influences kicked in, and by 93 it had evolved into Jungle. By this point⟳, Hardcore/Jungle (the terms remain⟳ interchangeable) was universally scorned by dance⟳ hipsters and banished from the media.”

“In large part, happycore was the result⟳ of an exodus of white ravers from the jungle scene, in reaction to the influx of black youth and the attendant mood change⟳ from bonhomie to surliness.”

“Hitting from the Jungle. The rough at some courses is just weeds and sparse grass, as often as not giving a player a decent lie⟳ to shoot⟳ from. But grass above four inches is nasty. It will grab⟳ your club and alter your shots.”
