para : La désignation «para», forme abrégée de «parallèle», est parfois employée comme qualificatif devant un nom pour désigner un sport pratiqué par une personne en situation de handicap. Cet emploi est déconseillé, car il ne respecte pas les règles de syntaxe du français. Il convient plutôt d'employer l'élément «para-» en tant que préfixe, comme dans les termes «parasport» et «para-athlétisme», c'est-à-dire soudé au mot avec lequel il forme un terme. 3, record 1, French, - adapt%C3%A9

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
a term used to describe the behavior of many kinds of systems. Originally used mainly to describe individuals (e.g., "his adaptive behavior"), it is now also applied to groups and organizations vis-a-vis their environments. It is usually employed to summarize a number of specific actions or events (e.g., "Mr. Y has a very adaptive style"), and hence its meaning is often vague. 3, record 3, English, - adaptive
