The verb form describes a physical change in shape or posture, often implying the application of force or a deliberate movement of the torso. It is frequently used in technical contexts regarding materials or in everyday descriptions of body language.

As a noun, the word has two distinct applications. When referring to curves in a road or river, it is a standard countable noun. However, when referring to decompression sickness, "the bends" is a specialized medical term that is used exclusively in the plural form, regardless of the number of occurrences, and is almost always preceded by the definite article "the".
