In general, when the dividing lines are diagonal, whether straight or curved, the traditional French terminology is preferred in English. When the dividing lines extend from chief to base and are straight, «Chaussé» ~ «Calzado» designates a partition in the form of a «V», whereas «Chapé» ~ «Cortinado» designates a partition in the form of a caret «^». When these same partitions are drawn with curved lines, the French adjective «ployé», meaning curvilinear, is added, giving «Chaussé ployé» ~ «Calzado curvilíneo», in the form of a «V», and «Chapé ployé» ~ «Cortinado curvilíneo», in the form of a caret «^», following the terminology proposed by [Sanz Lacorte, J.; 2007]. A second family of partitions originates at the centre of the shield. When their dividing lines are straight, the English terms «Party per chevron reversed» ~ «Mantelado en jefe» are used for a partition in the form of a «V» extending from the chief to the centre, whereas «Party per chevron» ~ «Mantelado en punta» designates a partition in the form of a caret «^» extending from the centre to the base, this latter being by far the most common of the partitions described here. When these central partitions are instead drawn with curved lines, the French terminology is again adopted: «Enté en chef» ~ «Entado en jefe» for a curvilinear partition in the form of a «V» extending from the centre towards the chief; «Enté en point» ~ «Entado en punta» for a curvilinear partition in the form of a caret «^» extending from the centre towards the base; «Enté en chef enhanced» ~ «Entado en jefe alzado» when the upper enté begins above the centre, approximately in the upper third of the shield, still forming a «V»; and «Enté en point abased» ~ «Entado en punta caído» when the lower enté begins below the centre, still forming a caret «^». As an additional distinction, «Chapé throughout» ~ «Capa» forms a straight caret «^», touching the chief and descending approximately to the middle of the flanks, whereas «Chapé ployé throughout» ~ «Capa curvilínea» has the same general arrangement and also forms a caret «^», but with curved lines. According to [Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 2002; page 85], «entés» originate from the centre of the shield; when «Enté en chef» ~ «Entado en jefe» begins in the upper third of the shield it is described as «Enté en chef enhanced» ~ «Entado en jefe alzado», whereas when «Enté en point» ~ «Entado en punta» begins in the lower third it is described as «Enté en point abased» ~ «Entado en punta caído». Nevertheless, heraldic practice does not always follow this theoretical distinction. For example, the pomegranate representing the Kingdom of Granada in the arms of Spain is almost universally blazoned as «Enté en point» ~ «Entado en punta», although it is neither described as «Enté en point abased» ~ «Entado en punta caído» nor usually depicted as issuing from the exact centre of the shield, but rather from a noticeably lower position.

Arms emblazoned by me, highlighted with lights and shadows, outlined in Sable, with a corset external shape and with a watercolor finishing.

Coat of arms of Amber Martinez, California, designed by her, improved by Kevin D Couling and Bob Juchter van Bergen Quast and emblazoned by me. The motto «Miseris succurrere disco» originates from Virgil's «Aeneid», [Virgil, P.; Century I B.C.; book I, verse 630], numbered as verses 630-631 in some editions. The complete sentence is «Non ignara mali, miseris succurrere disco», commonly translated as «Not being unacquainted with suffering, I learn to help those who suffer» or «Knowing suffering myself, I have learned to come to the aid of the unfortunate». These words are spoken by Queen Dido of Carthage as she welcomes Aeneas and his shipwrecked Trojans. Offering them refuge and protection, Dido explains that she herself has experienced exile and hardship after fleeing Tyre following the murder of her husband. Her own experience of suffering has taught her compassion and empathy for those enduring misfortune, making this passage one of the most enduring literary expressions of charity, hospitality, and solidarity with people in distress.

Lozengy Or and Azure, on a pale Gules, three estoiles Or.

Escudo losanjado oro y azur, en un palo de gules, tres estrella ondadas de oro.

Coat of arms interpreted in the following manner: the shape of the base is semicircular; the field has been enameled in Azure; the lozenges with their 4 rectangular and equal angles, are outlined in Sable and illuminated in metal Or; the lozengy is 6 lozenges wide by 7 lozenges high; the pale outlined in Sable and illuminated in Gules; the estoiles with 6 wavy rays outlined in Sable and illuminated in metal Or; and the whole with a rough finish.

The term in Castilian for the «estrellas ondadas» (wavy stars) is «Estrella» (star) alone, which, like other figures, if not blazoned, is assumed to have 5 straight rays unless another number is stated.

The English term «estoile», which is used in this blazon, as opposed to «mullet», refers to a star of 6 wavy rays ~ «six points and wavy», which in heraldry are called wavy. Sometimes, and depending on the era, these differences may not have been so clear.
