O QUE SIGNIFICA CURTSY EM INGLÊS

Reverência

Curtsey

Um curtsey é um gesto tradicional de saudação, em que uma menina ou mulher dobra os joelhos enquanto curta a cabeça. É o equivalente feminino da inclinação masculina nas culturas ocidentais. Miss Manners caracteriza sua curva de joelho como derivada de um "gesto tradicional de um inferior a um superior". A palavra "curtos" é uma mudança fonológica de "cortesia" conhecida em lingüística como síncope. De acordo com Desmond Morris, os movimentos envolvidos no curtsey e no arco foram semelhantes até o século 17 e a diferenciação de gênero entre as ações desenvolvidas depois. A versão anterior, combinada, ainda é realizada por atores de comédia de Restauração. Em variantes mais formais do curtsey, a menina / mulher dobra os joelhos para fora, muitas vezes varrendo um pé atrás dela. Ela também pode usar as mãos para segurar a saia de seu corpo. Na era vitoriana, quando as mulheres usavam saias de comprimento do chão, hooped, eles fizeram uma reviravolta usando o movimento plié emprestado da segunda posição no balé clássico em que os joelhos estão dobrados enquanto as costas ficam retas. Tanto os pés como os joelhos apontaram para que o tronco abaixe para baixo. Desta forma, a senhora abaixa-se uniformemente, não de um lado.

A curtsey is a traditional gesture of greeting, in which a girl or woman bends her knees while bowing her head. It is the female equivalent of male bowing in Western cultures. Miss Manners characterizes its knee bend as deriving from a "traditional gesture of an inferior to a superior." The word "curtsy" is a phonological change from "courtesy" known in linguistics as syncope. According to Desmond Morris, the motions involved in the curtsey and the bow were similar until the 17th century, and the gender differentiation between the actions developed afterwards. The earlier, combined version is still performed by Restoration comedy actors. In more formal variants of the curtsey, the girl/woman bends the knees outward, often sweeping one foot behind her. She may also use her hands to hold her skirt out from her body. In Victorian era, when women wore floor-length, hooped skirts, they curtsied using the plié movement borrowed from second-position in classical ballet in which the knees are bent while the back is held straight. Both feet and knees point out so the torso lowers straight down. This way, the lady lowers herself evenly, not to one side.
