col

n.
A pass between two mountain peaks or a gap in a ridge.

[French, from Old French, neck, from Latin collum.]

(kol, rhymes with doll)

noun
A mountain pass.

Etymology
From French col (neck), from Latin collum (neck). Ultimately from the Indo-European root kwel- (to revolve) that is also the source of words such as colony, cult, culture, cycle, cyclone, chakra, and collar

Usage
"Car rental presented the first obstacle. No major company allows its vehicles on Saddle Road, which runs across the 6,600-foot-high col between the two peaks, much less anywhere near the summits themselves." — James Dannenberg; Trying for a peak experience on Big Island; San Francisco Chronicle; Aug 24, 2008.

(kôl)
n

Refers to a depression in the gingival tissue of the interdental papilla inferior to the contact.

1. In the landscape, a pass between two peaks or ridges. Landscape cols may have been formed by: the headward erosion of a cirque, river capture, the beheading of dip-slope valleys by scarp retreat, or the localized differential erosion of a ridge.

2. In meteorology, a narrow belt of relatively low pressure, but not a depression, between two anticyclones. Here, isobars are few and therefore winds are slack.

A slight depression in the underlying interdental papilla where two teeth contact each other.
