Meaning of word ягоза












7















I was reading the following blog https://ru-abandoned.livejournal.com/1501621.html and couldn't find a translation of the word "ягоза" that made sense from the context. According to the dictionary, "ягоза" is a "fidgety person". A quick search on google brings up a video clip entitled "ягоза- масленица"; and after watching this, it seems that this word can have also a somewhat more positive connotation, as in "can't stand still (from having so much fun)". The full sentence is "Свежий забор, ягоза и попискивающее дачло явно намекало на то, что незваным гостям там не рады". My translation is, "A new fence (COMMENT: I was also thinking that this could possibly mean 'live fence', as in being an 'electric fence') X and a beeping sensor clearly insinuates that uninvited guests are not welcome (here)"

    In context of the blog post "ягоза" means a (specific kind of?) barbwire (you can see at the photos there).

    Russian military and law enforcement are quite creative with the names for weapons, special equipment and such. There is a brand of handcuffs named Нежность ("tenderness"), a brand of police batons named Аргумент ("argument, reasoning") etc.

    i would call it cynical rather than creative, which is in agreement with Russian-style system of law enforcement (my apology for the use of this term)... свежий забор can't mean electric, rather newly built
