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 talus bone, calcaneus, and navicular bone are considered the proximal row of tarsal bones. The half of the bone closest to the heel is the calcaneal tubercle. On its lower edge on either side are its lateral and medial processes (serving as the origins of the abductor hallucis and abductor digiti minimi).
