What is the difference between a concave slope and convex slope?
Standing on the top of a concave slope means you can not see down to the bottom due to the bulge in the middle. A concave slope starts gently and gets steeper, once over the bulge, near the bottom. Standing on a concave slope means that you can see the bottom of the slope. A concave slope starts off steeply and becomes less steep near the bottom.

Another idea is that the French word for slope (monter) starts with a m, but it is not proven that there is a relationship (again). Another idea is that the old word for slope was modulus of slope (modulus being used in the sense of "number used to measure"), and the m was carried over. Yet another idea I have heard is there is no real reason.
