Why is oblongular not a word?

[aphex]

Circular and Rectangular are perfectly legit. Why not oblongular?

 

[IronWing]

Because oblong is already an adjective.

Ovals are shapes, and they're oblong.

 

[nageov3t]

rectan isn't a word either.

 

[aphex]

Egad! So by saying oblongular, I have effectively turned an adjective into a geometric shape?

Sounds like a tanning lotion for where the sun don't shine.

Of course it is, it's just not a shape. A rectan is a small orange-colored ape and is a cousin of the orangutan.

According to google, this is an Oblong - http://rothhammeraquatics.com/...hapes/Shape-OBLONG.jpg

And it calls it a shape

However, to go by the first post, it would have to be an "oblongle" to follow the same rules

A guy pissed me off once and I got all orangutangular on him. You know, I went ape-shape.

Yes, oblong is both a noun and an adjective. That's why I was agreeing w/ironwing.
