What is another word for lateen-rig?
Pronunciation: [latˈiːnɹˈɪɡ] (IPA) 
When it comes to nautical terms, "lateen-rig" usually refers to a triangular sail rigged to a long, diagonal yard at an angle from the mast. However, there are other nautical terms that can be used as synonyms for "lateen-rig". For instance, a "sprit-rig" is a similar triangular sail but it is supported by a sprit instead of a yard. Another term is "settee-rig", which is a sail configuration used on small boats, similar to a lateen-rig but with two masts instead of one. "Junk-rig" is also a term that describes a triangular sail configuration, but it utilizes a powerful, efficient rigging system instead of the more traditional rigging used with a lateen sail.
