long nose
Prominent facial protrusion
Long nose describes a nose that extends noticeably from the face, often used neutrally in physical description or as a mild insult.
The phrase carries associations with nosiness or prying into others' business—someone who sticks their nose where it doesn't belong.
In some folkloric traditions, a long nose marks liars or tricksters, as in Pinocchio.
