| | Chinese translation:美式标准舞 (as opposed to 国际标准舞) | Explanation:
Please see the following references:
"American Smooth is the American equivalent of what is called International Standard or Ballroom in Europe. The dances include Waltz, Tango (not Argentine Tango), Foxtrot (also called SlowFox) and Viennese Waltz."
"Compared to the International Standard however, it is not necessary to maintain contact at all times. Therefore, more figures are allowed in American Smooth. For example, shadow positions, changing hands and ladies turning under arm, to name a few."

"国际标准舞（International Standard）舞蹈时，要求舞伴之间必须保持双手相握的环抱姿态，而美式标准舞（American Smooth）舞伴之间可以按舞蹈组合造型的要求，双手不必保持相握的姿态。"
