crescent moon
Last Wednesday (January 2nd) the moon was at a waning gibbous, a waning gibbous is where the moon is covered up with a crescent shape from the right and is three fourths full from the left.
The general term for the visible lit part of the moon is "the phase of the moon." The visible lit portion can have a crescent shape, a gibbous shape or a "half-moon" (half circle) shape.
The Moon's shape on Monday would have been a waxing gibbous, which appears as a rounded shape with a larger illuminated portion compared to a first quarter Moon.
The moon is spherical.
I don't have real-time data or the ability to access current images, so I can't provide a specific description of the moon's appearance on a particular Wednesday. However, you can check a lunar calendar or astronomy app for details about the moon's phase and appearance on that date. Typically, the moon's look can range from a new moon to a full moon, depending on the lunar cycle.
