I have been asked to give names of shapes from A to Z . I can only find 14 shapes can you help..... I'm missing letters b, g, j, l, m, n, u, v, w, x, y, z.

Please paul!

I can give you a couple of ideas.

• A great dodecahedron is one for G. (Actually there are many such, great icosahedron, great dodecicosahedron,...)
  
  
• An undecagon for U.
  
  

For some others what about vee, wishbone and ziggurat. Look in your dictionary under X. One of mine has a definition of X as "object shaped like X". What does it say for Y? Also xiphoid, "sword shaped".

Let me know if you find others.
