WHAT DOES MONOCLINIC MEAN IN ENGLISH?

monoclinic

Monoclinic crystal system

In crystallography, the monoclinic crystal system is one of the 7 lattice point groups. A crystal system is described by three vectors. In the monoclinic system, the crystal is described by vectors of unequal length, as in the orthorhombic system. They form a rectangular prism with a parallelogram as its base. Hence two pairs of vectors are perpendicular, while the third pair makes an angle other than 90°.

Definition of monoclinic in the English dictionary

The definition of monoclinic in the dictionary is relating to or belonging to the crystal system characterized by three unequal axes, one pair of which are not at right angles to each other.
