longitudinal dunes
Long sand ridges that are oriented nearly parallel to the prevailing wind are called "linear dunes" or "longitudinal dunes." These formations are typically found in arid and semi-arid regions where wind patterns consistently shape the landscape. Their elongated shape reflects the direction and strength of the prevailing winds, often resulting in a series of ridges that can vary in height and spacing.
When they are exactly in line there is an eclipse. When they are nearly in line it is either Full Moon or New Moon. The word parallel is inappropriate here, as only lines can be parallel, not objects.
When magma intrudes parallel to another rock layer, the formation is called a "sill." Sills are typically formed when magma cools and solidifies between existing layers of sedimentary rock or other geological formations. This process can create horizontal or nearly horizontal intrusions, resulting in distinctive geological features.
In parallel venation, the veins are all smaller in size and parallel or nearly parallel to one another, although a series of smaller veins connects the large veins. Parallel venation occurs in the leaves of nearly all monocotyledonous Angiosperms, whose embryos have one cotyledon, as in flowering plants such as lillies and grasses
Incoming ocean waves bend and become nearly parallel to the shoreline due to refraction. This occurs because the part of the wave closest to the shore starts to slow down as the water becomes shallower. As a result, the wave bends or refracts towards the shore, resulting in an almost parallel orientation to the coastline.
A longitudinal dune is a large, elongated dune lying parallel to the prevailing wind direction.

A group of joints that are parallel or nearly parallel.

Uranus
It is nearly the shape of a square but one side is sloping and I think it is called a trapezoid

Scrape it gently with a craft knife held nearly parallel to the tile.
a line connecting the waterfalls of nearly parallel rivers that marks a drop in land level
Land that is nearly surrounded by water is called a peninsula.
