- single word requests - X, Y, Z — horizontal, vertical and . . .
If x and y are horizontal, z is vertical; if x and z are horizontal, y is vertical The words horizontal and vertical are generally used in a planar (2-dimensional) sense, not spatial (3-dimensional) Which is the reason you may not find a word corresponding to the third dimension along with horizontal and vertical
- expressions - Is x plotted against y or is y plotted against x . . .
"Vertical against horizontal", and, if you choose the almost (but not quite) universal convention of having x-values along the horizontal axis, and the variables are x and y, 'y against x' There is the complication that the horizontal axis is usually called the 'x-axis'; this doesn't matter when you're plotting v against t (or t against v

In this case, I like the term axial to describe a direction that is along the horizontal or vertical axis relative to the current position Axial - situated around, in the direction of, on, or along an axis
- A word to describe vertical and horizontal movement?
I down-voted this Orthogonal does not imply horizontal and vertical movement Orthogonal implies that one movement is at a right angle with respect to the other Horizontal and diagonal movements are thus always orthogonal, but two diagonal movements can also be orthogonal to each other
- Split horizontally or vertically – which one is which?
'Horizontal' means 'relating to the horizon', so strictly speaking whether a split is vertical or horizontal depends on its orientation relative to the ground Or less strictly, 'horizontal' is whatever the observer considers to be left right rather than up down

The intersection of the vertical plane with the horizontal plane would form a transverse This medical definition from thefreedictionary com describes: transverse plane of space, n an imaginary plane that cuts the body in two, separating the superior half from the inferior half, and that lies at a right angle from the body's vertical axis
- What’s the difference between “line” and “row”?
The terms can overlap again, though, in technical areas In tables or databases it is common to speak of rows and columns, with an emphatic horizontal vertical contrast in those terms: a row is implicitly horizontal, and cannot be mistaken for a column It is also perfectly intelligible, however, to speak of ‘lines in tables’
