There's something to be said for the Logflash algorithm, which forces you 
to memorize all gismu, even the really obscure ones. So I got the distinct 
feeling that I had seen some gismu that had a meaning similar to this 
before.

One quick jbovlaste search later, and I found {punli} 'convexity'. Will 
that do?
