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.
There are five metatarsals in each foot. The metatarsals are the long bones located between the tarsal bones and the phalanges. Each metatarsal has a long shaft with two expanded ends called the base and the head. They form part of the footâs arch and serve both as a major shock absorber and a weight-transfer mechanism.
