Abstract: The $K$-length of a form $f$ in $K[x_1,dots,x_n]$, $Ksubsetcc$, is the smallest number of $d$-th powers of linear forms of which $f$ is a $K$-linear combination. We present many results, old and new, about $K$-length, mainly in $n=2$, and often about the length of the same form over different fields. For example, the $K$-length of $3x^5-20x^3{y}^2+10x{y}^4$ is three for $K=qq(sqrt-1)$, four for $K=qq(sqrt-2)$ and five for $K=r$.
