For native English people especially.
The word in question is Villi. Do you understand what it is right away, or is it a term that most people would need to google?
In case you are curious, it's the littel things that cover the insides of intestine and help increase surface area to better absorb nutrients.
Here's how they look:
The reason I need this - I'm writing a tentacle story, and I want to describe the inside tecture of the "stomach" of the beast that it has similar texture. In the intestine these things are very small, but in my case they'll be large. If the word is difficult/unknown - will sumeone advice me how to better describe such texture? Obviously I don't want my readers to have to google stuff to understand what I'm describing.
