Now a tiny "nit": The plural of pendulum is "pendula."



And big pendula are pendulous, right? Or is that big pudenda?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I had to look it up. Pudendum refers to the external sexual organs,
especially of a female. So, while a male may have pendulous genitalia, a
female, with pendulous mammalia is the one with a pudendum. For the
pudendum to be pendulous would be stretching it.
