MORE CUPSHAPED Meaning and
Definition
-
More cup-shaped' is an adjective used to describe an object or structure that exhibits a shape resembling that of a cup, but to a greater extent or in greater quantity than other similar objects or structures.
The term 'cup-shaped' refers to the characteristic form of a cup, which is typically round or oval with a concave surface and deep interior. When an object is described as 'more cup-shaped,' it suggests that its overall shape closely resembles that of a cup, exhibiting a deeper concavity or a more pronounced roundness.
This description can be applied to a wide range of objects or natural formations such as flowers, shells, or geological features. For instance, a flower with a high degree of concavity in its petals or a shell with a more prominent roundness compared to others of its kind may be described as 'more cup-shaped.' Similarly, certain geological formations, like depressions or valleys with a pronounced hollow or basin-like form, can also be designated as 'more cup-shaped.'
The use of 'more' indicates a degree of comparison, implying that there are other objects or structures with cup-like shapes, but this particular one stands out due to its more pronounced or exaggerated features. The term 'more cup-shaped' is therefore employed to emphasize and highlight the heightened degree of cup-like characteristics possessed by the object or structure in question.

Etymology of MORE CUPSHAPED
The term "more cupshaped" is not a word with a specific etymology. It seems to be a combination of two distinct words: "more" and "cup-shaped".
- "More" is an adverb or comparative adjective indicating a greater degree, quantity, or intensity. Its origins can be traced back to Old English "māra", from the Germanic root "maizô".
- "Cup-shaped" is a compound adjective describing the shape of something resembling a cup. It combines "cup", derived from Old English "cuppe", ultimately from the Latin "cuppa", with "shaped", a past participle of the verb "shape", which comes from Old English "sceapian".
Together, "more cupshaped" suggests something that is even more resembling the shape of a cup compared to something else.
