hello,
I wish to learn some body posture words:
1. If your hands are on your hips: akimbo (right?)
2. if you put one leg on the other when sitting in a chair: sitting cross-legged (right?
3. similar to no. 1 but mostly men do it: one ankle is on the knee when sitting: is it still 'sitting cross-legged' or is there another word for it?
4. if your hands are behind you, touching each other (usually old people do it when they walk): what is it called?
5. again sitting on a chair, you put your one ankle on the other: what is it called? (sitting cross-ankled?)
6. you are sitting at a table, one elbow is on the table and the head is sort of leaning to the hand (as if you are thinking): ?
7. both your elbows are on the table and the fingers of both hands kind of interlocked (again we do it when we think): ?
thanks a lot..
