  • fer_k, I'm psyched you started this list!

    Not to be a nudge, but should this be listed in the singlular? That's how it is in the Wikipedia ballet glossary (which would be a great source to pillage for more words :-)

  • What a great phrase: Wikipedia ballet glossary. How elegant. ;-)

  • My ex-teacher used to write with this S even in the singular (the same for "tendus" and "jetés"). But, may it be as Wikipedia says. Thank you for the tip and for the great resource, John! I'll add plié to this list and delete this one.
