From time to time, especially on this site, we come across terms commonly used by certain martial arts styles that aren't used by other styles.
I remember when I first came, I was initially a tad confused. I then can see the similarity in meaning, but I do detect that some are not necessarily on the same level of meaning.
What I would like is to identify which styles use these terms below.
Feel free to add on more terms to the list below also. If you wish, you may add a very brief definition if that may help clarify the term further or to explain how/when it is used by your style.
