Hi Adam,

I would suggest that you try to compile a standard vocabulary which
you then use in cribs and teaching - if you don't want to write one
yourself, then probably the most accessible is the RSCDS list of
standard terminology which can be found in the RSCDS manual.

I think someone on the list (Anselm?) also produced a list of standard
terminology for figures which had not, as yet, made it into the
manual.

HTH,

PS I've seen plenty of American's step-hopping, although I will
concede that it might not have been in a contra dance!
