Shaping Up: Slang of Polyhedra

Did you see that polygon?! Her extrusions were so... spherical! Geometry REALLY blessed her!

  I do hope you understand the struggle that writing this article has been.   Greetings, cube. I am Uxxes Cubohemioctahedron, one of the many clerks handling relations with the rectangular visitors to Compilation. It has occurred to the Spherical that most cubes enter Polyhedra without any knowledge of our clever grasp of Common and thus end up taking offence to our native customs. I have been asked to create a document to inform you of some of the differences.  

Common Phrases

  Though there are many ways I could teach these, listing them all seems to be the most axiomatic.     Other phrases relating to shapes are common. A simple way of deriving their meaning can be learnt - imagine the shape or geometrical term in question, and apply it to whom it was directed towards. Referring to a woman's bosom as 2D is, unsurprisingly, a gross insult that many powerful polyhedrals will respond to with either magic or blades. Use of mathematical terms has recently become more popular, as well: informing somebody that you wish to 'practice your multiplication' is an incredibly forward sexual innuendo.   Do try to remember this information during your stay in Polyhedra! Don't forget: cube is not a term of offence!
