Flattened

/ˈflætənd/ adjective

Definition

Made flat or level; pressed down so that something is no longer raised or bumpy.

Etymology

From 'flatten' (combining 'flat' from Middle English, ultimately from Old Norse 'flatr') plus the past participle suffix '-ed', forming the adjective describing the result of the action.

Kelly Says

In physics and meteorology, 'flattened' describes real phenomena—Jupiter is actually flattened at the poles because its rapid rotation causes it to bulge at the equator. This is called 'oblate spheroid', and it's why no planet or star is perfectly spherical!
