n

The glabella is the foremost part of the forehead that intervenes between the eyebrows. If you have a unibrow, your glabella might be hidden!
If you've been at a loss to describe the phenomenon of the unibrow (also called the monobrow), you can now define it has "eyebrows joined by a growth of hair across the glabella." Glabella is a New Latin coinage that belies its reality in the unibrowed: it means "hairless."
