Which term maps to the English word 'Waist'?

• A. Chil, Ilgup
• B. Yuk, Yasot
• C. Hur Ri
• D. Pahl

Answer: (C)

In WTSDA vocabulary, body parts are taught with specific Korean terms, and each term corresponds to a particular area of the body. The term for the waist is Hur Ri. This word is the standard label used in forms and drills to refer to the midsection where the hips and torso align during movements. Because Hur Ri is the established term for the waist in training materials and instruction, it’s the best choice for this mapping. The other terms point to different body parts or concepts and aren’t used to denote the waist.
