Tango Terminology

[MadamSamba]

I LOVE languages, but have never studied much Spanish, so learning AT has been a wonderful and gentle introduction to the language.

I stumbled across this (http://www.sacramentotango.org/Resources/TangoTerminology.htm) fabulous guide to Tango terms, which has proven very helpful and provides clear explanations of core Tango terms such as cruzadas, ochos and ganchos, as well as a bunch of lesser-known terms.

Happy reading!

Cool, MadamSamba.


I've run across some terminology cheat sheets, too. If I find them again, I'll post here.

How are your lessons going? Have you made it to a practica yet? I guess it's time for me to break down and actually learn something about this dance. :roll: The problem is that I'm trying to focus on ballroom smooth right now. I wonder if it's possible to focus in and branch out at the same time. I'm sad. Really sad. :oops: :lol:
