stand with feet slightly apart Explanation: If you were listening to a speech (esp. military) then you could say "stand at ease" which means basically the same thing, but as this is the stance required for *working* (performing other tasks at the same time), then this would probably be fine. I'm sure there are many other expressions also. Reference: http://tinyurl.com/ctqsx7 |

Stand with your feet slightly apart and at an angle, so that they resemble the letter "V" Explanation: This phrase means that the relative position and angle of your feet should resemble the relationship of the two strokes of the kanji for the number eight (八). This phrase is often used to describe the stance (足踏み) used in kyudo (弓道), traditional Japanese archery. The heels are closer together than the toes, as in the "at ease" position previously mentioned. |

stand straight with toes slightly outward (and heels together) Explanation: **八の字」ではなくて、『つま先側を少し広めに開いて立つ』でしょうか** ということでしたら、こういう不うになるのでは???ちょっと長々しいですけど。 で、脚は Earl さんがいうように V 字型になりますね。くっついているところがかかとです。 |

Reference: FYI Reference information: http://detail.chiebukuro.yahoo.co.jp/qa/question_detail/q111... 上記のリンクはスキーに関するリンクですが、スキーでも足を八の字にして滑る方法があります。英語ではsnowplowと言います。和訳するとプルークボーゲンとなります。参考になるかどうか分かりませんが、良かったら参照してみてください。 |
