Also:
Azure, a bend wavy in the sinister chief a cross coupy argent.
As with other ordinaries, a cross may be couped; and then it is termed
"humetty," though the term "coupée" seems to be occasionally used. Of course
all the four arms are couped, unless there is any distinguishing note to the
contrary. It would also appear that this cross should be always drawn with its
arms equal. When more than one cross or crosslet occurs in the same shield it
stands to reason they must be humetty, so that it is not necessary to mention
it.
The term "humetty" is sometimes used in connection with special terminations to the arms of the cross, but practically it is needless, for were the cross extended to the edges there would be no room for such terminations. See e.g. cross annuletty and fleuretty; also gringolée and the like. To these might be added "anserated" and "ancetty," though the terms have not been observed in any English blazon.
On the other hand a cross "pattée" (which is naturally humetty) must be blazoned as "throughout" or "fixed," if it is intended that the four arms of the cross should reach to the edges of the shield. The French term "tronçonné," signifying that the cross is broken up into small cubes, is given by Edmondson, and others, but no examples have been noticed either in French or English arms. One example only of a "demi-cross" has been observed.
