flexibility Explanation: "Streck- zur Beugeschlinge" sounds like flexibility to me, but I'm not really sure about it - just filling in a little time while I wait for an answer to my latest question! Perhaps there may prove to be some more specialised term, but "flexibility" seems reasonable - it certainly relates to the extent to which you can bend or stretch your leg. If there is a more specific term than this for the German expression, hopefully someone will come up with it before long! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr 25 mins (2004-06-26 12:46:47 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It looks to me like something to do with the actual leg movement. Schlinge can sometimes mean sling in medical contexts - not too sure about pulley. I\'m sure someone will eventually comes along who actually knows what they\'re talking about here! |
