Position:Home>Dancing> Plier or Plie?


Question:I know this is a stupid question, but I was just wondering, because I've seen it written loads of different ways, and I'd just like to know... are the exercises for ballet written in the infinitive - like plier - or the past - like plie, with an accent, or something else?

Theoretically it should be spelled in the infinitive, but in ballet its plie :)
And you're right, ballet terms are written in the same format, coupe, degage, develope, etc.

Plie :)

plie in fench for ballet when you do like a demi plie or whatever step

Isn't it in the Imperative? Like saying, "Go", "Jump", "Bend". Allez, Saute, Plie.

Plie with an acute accent.

A plier is a piece of instrument that you turn the screws round! So a plie!
