The Russian word Угол means ‘corner’ or ‘angle’. It declines like so:
| Sg | Pl |
| Nom | угол | углы |
| Acc | угол | углы |
| Gen | угла | углов |
| Pre | об угле
в углу
на углу | углах |
| Dat | углу | углам |
| Ins | углом | углами |
The word угол can have a different meaning, depending on the context it is used in. For example, in geometry it can be used when talking about an angle of a triangle or some other geometrical figure. It can also be used when giving directions and talking about street or building corners. However, the word Угол was used in a very unique context by a forward of Tula's soccer team "Arsenal", who said that the he received the ball «на угол головы», which means: “on the corner of his head.” Apparently some people’s heads have corners...
