2. if you are left-handed, then do not cut the first cut from your right side, 3. but instead cut from the left side, 4. because it is quite uncomfortable and contrary for a right-hander 5. to practice the art from their left side. 6. The same is also true for a left-hander from the right side.

Smooth English from German

Likewise, if you are left-handed, then do not cut the first cut from your right side, but instead cut from the left side, because it is quite uncomfortable and contrary for a right-hander to practice the art from their left side. The same is also true for a left-hander from the right side.

Notes

• The Latin is more specific about handedness when discussing the left hand.
• Translating both ictus (noun) and feries (verb) as "strike" is a little weird, since they're not at all the same in Latin, but this is only really a problem when they're both in the same sentence.
• Note that 81v a says "more skillful striking from the right" where 81v b says "if the left hand is more dextrous than the right"
• Could these distinctions about handedness be about but the mechanics your opponent can interact with rather than the strength of the strike itself? see "you can stoutly resist"

• DMLBS may support the idea that indes could come from intus:
  • https://logeion.uchicago.edu/intus
• Grimm suggests interea as a Latin translation for indes
