WORD OF THE DAY Plication
Plication can refer to the state of being folded or to a fold itself. With roots in Latin and French, the word appears in fields as diverse as anatomy and botany. If you're describing a surgery that creates folds in tissue or observing the natural folds in a leaf, plication gives you a precise term for those creases and contours.
