Curved or rounded in shape, especially describing a graceful, flowing line or form.
From French 'arrondi,' past participle of 'arrondir' (ar- + rond 'round'). The word entered English from French vocabulary, particularly used in ballet, art, and architecture to describe rounded, elegant curves.
In ballet, dancers aim for arrondi arms and movements—rounded, flowing, and graceful—because sharp angles look rigid compared to beautiful curves.
