lagan
This term is a specialized maritime legal and nautical word, rarely encountered in general conversation. It describes a specific category of jettisoned cargo that is intentionally marked for retrieval, distinguishing it from flotsam, which floats aimlessly, or jetsam, which is cast overboard without the intent or means of recovery.
Because it refers to a collective mass of merchandise or a specific category of goods, it is typically treated as an uncountable noun in legal and nautical contexts. It functions as a technical classification used primarily in salvage law to determine ownership and rights to recovered property.
