Never have I ever heard this word before, and I aced mineralogy. I have an A+ in shapes. Is this a familiar term?

Can’t say I’ve heard the term.
I’ve only heard about it in elasticity theory, as the case of triclinic anisotropy for which the elasticity tensor has 21 independent components, which is the maximum possible number.
Common term in Brazil, we use it to refer to street curbs. It’s also fun because it sounds so weird.
