EN: Tapering; pointed
The shape of an ice cream cone, a party hat, or your kilay (eyebrows) when you're trying to achieve that "on fleek" look. Anything that starts wider and gets narrower towards the end is patulis. It's the OG shape of a pencil before you even use it.
From `pa-` (formative prefix) + `tulis` (point/sharpness).
ROOT MEANING: Pointed / Sharp point
