Pronunciation: [kɹˈɛsəntɪd] (IPA) 
The word "crescented" is spelled with a "c" sound at the beginning, followed by "res" pronounced as /rɛs/ and "cented" pronounced as /sɛntəd/. The letter "s" in the middle is pronounced as the "s" in "snake" and "cent" is pronounced with a soft "c" as the "c" in "century". The word means "having a crescent shape," and is often used to describe a moon that appears as a thin, curved shape.
Crescented is an adjective that describes an object or surface that is shaped like a crescent moon or has a crescent moon-like curve or appearance. The term is derived from the noun "crescent," which refers to the curved shape of the moon in its first or last quarter phase. When an object is described as crescented, it means that it has a curved or arched shape that resembles the shape of a crescent moon.
The term can be used to describe various objects or surfaces that possess this characteristic shape. For example, a crescented window refers to a window that has a curved or arched top, resembling the shape of a crescent moon. Similarly, a crescented blade may refer to a cutting tool, such as a knife or sword, that has a curved edge that slightly resembles the shape of a crescent moon. In another context, crescented hills or landscapes may suggest a hilly area with curves or arcs resembling the shape of crescent moons.
The term "crescented" can therefore be used to describe a wide range of objects, surfaces, or natural formations that feature a crescent moon-like curve or appearance.
Adorned with a crescent; crescent-like; crescent-shaped.

The word "cresented" appears to be derived from the noun "crescent", which in turn comes from the Latin word "crescens". "Crescens" is the present participle of the verb "crescere", meaning "to grow" or "to increase". The noun "crescent" originally referred to the shape of the moon when it is less than half full, resembling a curved shape. Over time, "crescented" developed as a rare adjective form of "crescent", used to describe something that has the shape or appearance of a crescent.
