- No, it is not true,tango names are used in Argentina the same as abroad.
1- Caminata - Tango Walk
2- Ocho adelante - Ocho atras - Ocho cortado : Front, back ocho and ocho
cortado.
3- Giros a la derecha o a la izquierda - Turns or molinetes right or left.
4- La Cruzada.
There certain moves that have different names, some of those names are more
popular in certain areas than in others.
Ex. Rulo, lapiz, dibujo : To execute a circular motion with the foot. Curl or
pencil or drawing.
Most places abroad use the Argentine Terminology in Spanish.
