"Ellipse" is a word in ENGLISH
The elliptical orbit of a planet.
An oval or oblong figure, bounded by a regular curve,
which corresponds to an oblique projection of a circle, or an oblique
section of a cone through its opposite sides. The greatest diameter of
the ellipse is the major axis, and the least diameter is the minor
axis. See Conic section, under Conic, and cf. Focus.
Omission. See Ellipsis.
Lovers are easy to find and easy to forget but finding an authentic connection is exceptional and limited. It rarely happens, which is why there are so many unhappy people out there.
