Examples
Just go far enough to orient those tendon landmarks in their ideal position—otherwise, you can overcorrect into supination, putting excessive weight on the outside of the foot and lifting off of the big toes.
Overpronation wears away the inside edge of the shoe, while supination erodes the outer edge.
The radius and ulna are parallel in the most natural position of supination.
Sem′i-supernat′ural, half-divine and half-human; Sem′i-sū′pinated, placed between supination and pronation.
With the forearm in supination they would appear in their real position, in front of the ulna and on the outside of the radius.
Those defending the upper left-hand quarter are “quarte” (fourth; in supination) and “quinte” (fifth; in pronation).
Those defending the lower right-hand quarter are “octave” (eighth; in supination) and “seconde” (second; in pronation).
