| A | B |
| Abduction | transverse plane- lateral rotation- away from the center |
| Transverse | Divides top and bottom |
| Frontal | Divides front and back |
| saggital | divides left and right |
| adduction | transverse plane- medial rotation of the foot (toward the center) |
| Inversion | frontal plane- rotates in and up -sole toward midline |
| Eversion | frontal plane- rotates out and up- sole away from midline |
| Plantarflexed | foot is positioned below transverse plane |
| dorsiflexed | foot is positioned above transeverse plane |
| pronation | tri-plane motion-abduction, dorsiflexion and eversion |
| supination | tri-plane motion adduction, platarflexion and inversion |
| mobile adaptor | pronated foot upon strike -loose bag of bones that adapts to variance in terrain |
| rigid lever | supinated foot that propels body forward in locomotion |
| STJ | subtalar joint |
| Degrees | unit in which pronation and suponation are measured |
| lateral | On the side away fro the mid-line sagittal plane |
| medial | on the side closer to the mid-line sagittal plane |
| dorsum surface | the top part of the foot |
| plantar surface | the sole of the foot |
| Varus | fixed structural position where foot appears inverted |
| valgus | fixed structural position in which foot appears everted |
