Eight things you use every day but never knew their name | BBC Bitesize

There’s a good chance you’ve either seen or used an aglet today. You might even have waggled your minimus, or noticed your glabella in the mirror.
Like a drupelet or a ferrule, these are all names for things that play a part in everyday life - it’s just that we may never have needed to use their official titles before. By the time you reach the end of this article, BBC Bitesize aims to help you distinguish between a obelus and an octothorpe - even if you never use any of these words, ever again…

I bet you'll never remember most of them, ever again...
