Which term means 'Under-over step'?

• A. Enchaînements
• B. Soussus
• C. Pas de Bourrée Dessous
• D. Coupé Dessus

Answer: (B)

Understanding how feet pass in relation to each other in fifth position on relevé is being tested. The phrase “Under-over step” describes a foot action where the feet cross and pass under and then over each other while staying turned out in fifth position, typically on relevé. That exact action is captured by the term sous-sous, which conveys this tight, alternating crossing of the feet.

Enchaînements refer to sequences of steps, not a single foot-crossing gesture. Pas de Bourrée Dessous denotes a bourrée movement executed with emphasis on the sous (under) direction, and Coupé Dessus describes a coupé moving over. None of these specifically name the compact under-over crossing like sous-sous does.
