Rotation is the term meaning turning a body part on its own axis.

I find turning a body part on its own axis hard to explain. I can only give examples:

  • Rotating your outstretched arm at the elbow or shoulder, say from palm up to palm down.
  • Moving your head from facing front to facing left or right.
