aspect

In earth sciences the direction in which a slope faces. In the northern hemisphere a slope with a southerly aspect receives more sunshine than other slopes and is therefore better suited for growing crops that require many hours of sunshine in order to ripen successfully. Vineyards in northern Europe are usually situated on south-facing slopes.

aspect

In grammar, the aspect of a verb refers to the point in time when an action is taking place, and not the time of speaking or writing. It results in aspects of the continuous tense (continuing to happen) and the perfect tense (perfected or finished).
