Aug 29, 2012 at 12:02 comment added Jim Humphreys @Ben: True. My real point is that "contragredient" is usually just a synonym for "dual" in the context of dual spaces of vector spaces. I guess some people might want to apply the term "contravariant" (derived from "contravariant form") to the BGG dual. Still, "contragradient" or "contragradiant" is one of those odd inventions which doesn't seem to work.
