Do you make going to the store to buy groceries a fascinating experience? Do you offer witty observations of the people you pass on the street? If so, you're a raconteur, someone who can regale his or her listeners with riveting stories, usually funny, sometimes dramatic. Raconteur comes from the French word raconter, meaning to recount.. Note its eur ending, signaling its French origin.
Tarsals are located in the top part of your feet. Think of a straight leg as an L, the tarsals are located where the L bends to form a foot.
The phalanges are connected to the metatarsals by five metatarsal phalangeal joints at the ball of the foot. The forefoot bears half the bodyâs weight and balances pressure on the ball of the foot. The midfoot has five irregularly shaped tarsal bones, forms the footâs arch, and serves as a shock absorber.
