Did You Know?

"Lentil-shaped"—that's the meaning of Latin lenticularis, the
parent of English's lenticular. It's an appropriate predecessor
because a double-convex lens is one that is curved on both
sides, giving it a shape similar to that of a lentil. English
speakers borrowed the Latin term in the 15th
century. Lenticularis, in turn, derives from lenticula, which is
the source of the English word lentil and a diminutive of the
Latin form lent-, lens, meaning "lentil." You probably won't be
too surprised to learn that lent-, lens also gave English the
word lens.

"This is not the first time Boulder County has been enthralled
by a strange cloud formation. In 2017, a spaceship-shaped
group of lenticular clouds made its way across the county and
onto social media." — Mitchell Byars, The Boulder (Colorado)
