spherical

A spherical shape is round and curved like a ball. Imagine holding a basketball or a globe.

You might hear people talk about spherical shapes all around you. For example, if someone says that the Earth is a sphere, they mean it's roughly round in shape. This is because, from space, our planet looks like a big ball. Similarly, some objects we use are designed to be spherical, like balls or even some types of fruit. Architects might also consider the spherical shape when designing buildings with curved lines.
