Poll Results for Longeing/Lunging/Other

So the results have been in for a little while but I have been a very bad blogger.

With 19 votes, here's how it came out:

13 votes, or 63% for "lunging"
5 votes, or 26% for "longeing"
1 vote, or 5% for "other"

(Dear "other," what do you say instead? Come let us know!)

Check out the comments on the original post, too. I tend to agree with Carly: lunge is a forward movement; longe is what the horse does in circles around you.

I wonder if it's a difference between British or American spelling?

    If USEF says it is so, it must be so.
