Which term means 'developed or unfolded'?

• A. Developpe
• B. Releve
• C. Arabesque
• D. Temps leve

Answer: (A)

Developpé means developed or unfolded. It describes drawing the working leg up to passé, then lengthening it out to full extension in a controlled, unfolding movement. The emphasis is on turning a folded or bent position into a straight, extended line while maintaining turnout and alignment from the hip. This is different from relevé (a rise on the toes), arabesque (the leg extended behind the body in a pose), or temps levé (a small jump). So the term that captures the idea of unfolding the leg into its extended position is developpé.
