Describing The Shape of Something 
Forming a sentence using the “shape” words introduced above 
is quite simple. The easiest structure you can use is [shape 
name] + -이에요. 
Ex) 
정사각형이에요. = It’s a square. 
직사각형이에요. = It’s rectangular. 
원형이에요. = It’s circular. 
But when the word itself doesn’t have the letter -형 at the end 
or 모양 in itself, people often add 모양 at the end of the shape 
name. 
Ex) 
십자가 모양이에요. = It’s shaped like a cross. 
화살표 모양이에요. = It’s shaped like an arrow.
