The word jung is used to describe someone or something that is in the early stages of life or development. It can refer to a person who is not yet fully grown or mature, or to an object that is new or recently created. For example, a young child might be described as jung, as might a newly formed company or organization.

In addition to its literal meaning, jung can also be used figuratively to describe something that is fresh, innovative, or cutting-edge. For instance, a new technology or idea might be referred to as jung because it represents a departure from established norms and practices.

It's worth noting that the word jung is often used in combination with other adjectives to provide more specific information about age or youthfulness. For example, jemand ist noch sehr jung (someone is still very young) might be used to indicate that a person is in their early twenties or younger.
