When I was about five, I learned what an "oblong" was. Or so I thought. I was convinced it was just another name for a rectangle, but Google Image Search suggests it's a rectangle with rounded corners. Have I just been wrong for the last three decades? https://www.google.com/search?tbm=isch&source=hp&biw=1439&bih=809&ei=PRDzWuOTM4mdkgXAqZmABw&q=oblong&oq=oblong&gs_l=img.3..0l10.396.972.0.1368.7.5.0.2.2.0.116.408.2j2.4.0....0...1ac.1.64.img..1.6.414.0...0.d9bXIxXjBY0 …

Fun fact: the word in Italian originally referred to slippers and it's also used to referred to power strips (I always have to look up "power strip" as I'm tempted to just say "slipper" when referring to them).

No problem with that, we Italians get angry only if you mess with our food. E.g. order a cappuccino after a pizza and no one will ever talk to you again. :-)
