That, and you are likely quite lax in the ankle joint, meaning it happens easily.

Is a torn ligament a strain?

No, a torn ligament is a sprain. A sprain can happen when a ligament is overstretched. It can be caused by a twist or wrench. So a twisted ankle is a sprained ankle. A strain refers to when you tear or overstretch a muscle or tendon (which attach muscles to bones). This can be caused by a sudden stretch or extra effort.
