I would use Quadratic too.

In kig.po there are some recently added terms concerning B=C3=A9zier curves=
. More<br>
precisely, &quot;Quadric&quot; and &quot;Cubic&quot; B=C3=A9zier curves are=
 mentioned. I think the word<br>
&quot;Quadric&quot; is an error and should be &quot;Quadratic&quot; instead=
, as you can see in<br>
<a href=3D"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%A9zier_curve#Examination_of_ca=
ses" target=3D"_blank">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%A9zier_curve#Exami=
nation_of_cases</a>.<br>
<br>
A &quot;quadric&quot; is a far more general mathematical object, namely an =
hypersurface<br>
defined as the loci of zeros of a quadratic polynomial. Nothing closely rel=
ated<br>
to B=C3=A9zier curves.<br>
