What is another word for crookneck?
Pronunciation: [kɹˈʊknɛk] (IPA) 
Crookneck refers to a certain type of summer squash that has a curved, crooked neck and a bulbous bottom. While not widely used, there are several synonyms that can be used for this type of squash. These include yellow squash, straightneck squash, summer squash, and spaghetti squash. Yellow squash is similar to crookneck in appearance, except that it has a straight neck. Similarly, straightneck squash also resembles crookneck in shape but lacks the curve. Summer squash is a broad term used for any type of squash that is harvested during the summer months. Spaghetti squash, on the other hand, is a different variety altogether which has a unique, stringy flesh.
