Bear and ears
a bear's ear is it round or rounded? the auto-correct puts round ears in blue so I am confused. Bears do have round ears, or don't they?
(I am not asking about scary cat photos with round ears. You know what bears are, right?)
Top answer
round suggests they are close to forming a perfect circle. If you look at a photo of a bear, the sides and the part of the earth that is attached to the head is somewhat straight. rounded suggests a bit round but not perfectly circular.
- round suggests they are close to forming a perfect circle.

- rounded suggests a bit round but not perfectly circular.
- So I'd use 'rounded'.

Maybe you haven't yet found the real reason why those two words are in blue. It's extremely doubtful that auto-correct knows anything about the anatomy of animals. Can you give us the whole sentence that these words occur in?
