<Tuesday terminology>
Today’s terminology is UCHI UKE or in Shotokan, SOTO UKE.
⁡
In Shito ryu, the block is called uchi uke because the block is going TOWARDS the inside. However, in Shotokan it’s called Soto uke because the block STARTS from the outside.
⁡
Again, same with all the other blocks, Shito ryu will finish with the body facing forward, versus shotokan, where the body will be in hanmi. 
⁡
Disclaimer: This is how I would translate the Japanese terminology. If it is different from the translation at your dojo, be sure to learn the terminology you are taught at the dojo.
