How it's used
This term is used almost exclusively in technical, aviation, or hobbyist contexts to describe aircraft lacking a distinct fuselage or tail. It is not a common word in everyday casual conversation unless discussing specific engineering topics or model airplanes. When referring to the general concept of wings on a plane, people simply use 翼 or 機翼.
