The forearm is the section of your upper limb that stretches between your elbow and wrist. It's an important anatomical term because it helps distinguish this specific region from the broader "arm," which in everyday language refers to your entire upper limb but in anatomy technically means only the upper arm above the elbow.

De onderarm, voorarm of antebracchium is een onderdeel van het menselijk lichaam, namelijk het deel van de arm dat zich tussen de elleboog en de pols bevindt. De bewegingen die de onderarm kan maken zijn het gevolg van de bewegingsmogelijkheden die het ellebooggewricht en het polsgewricht geven. Zo kunnen de twee onderarmbeenderen radius en ulna over elkaar heen bewegen bij pronatie en supinatie. Daarnaast zijn ze over de gehele lengte door een bindweefselvlies (membrana interossea) verbonden.
