And if we get "lens", can we also get a word for "zoom lens"?

  We learned last year that we can't 'piggyback' suggestions with more suggestions in the comments, so this would have to be a separate entry.
  
  I think it's an excellent suggestion: magnify, make (something) appear bigger, zoom in (on)

    tInmoHlaw'? tInqu'moHlaw'?

      I don't think -law' works like that. Unless the speaker is an omniscient narrator, tInmoHlaw' means It seems (to me) like it enlarges it.
