This is just a random example of a time in which it make sense to use shape to describe an object, but there are sure to be many others if you lose an item of your personal belongings while you are at the school, for another example, you might want to describe it as clearly as possible to the tutor or other staff member who is helping you to try and find it, so that you know that everything is being done to look for it that can be possible. We are not suggesting that you have to prove your geometrical knowledge in a language class, but it is likely that, at a certain moment, you will have to give a precise description for some kind of object – and in fact, while you are still building up your vocabulary, you might want to use words that describe shape in order to get around the fact that you do not know the right word for something, so that you can get the person you are talking to to understand what you mean in another way.įor example, you might want to ask someone to pass you a plate when you are eating in a tapas restaurant – but instead of the circular one which is closer to you, you are asking for the square one just a little way beyond it.
