Ne pas confondre stuc et stucco. Le stuc est un enduit composé généralement de plâtre et de colle forte qui imite le marbre. Les Canadiens ont emprunté à l'anglais le mot stucco, qui désigne un enduit coloré fait de plâtre et de ciment dont on se sert en Amérique du Nord comme revêtement de murs extérieurs. Ce matériau de construction un peu baroque est inconnu en France. Se garder d'employer le mot stuc pour désigner un revêtement de stucco. 4, record 2, French, - stucco

Suivant la norme US, le mot [anglais] "stucco", indépendamment de la nature du matériau employé, se réfère uniquement à son mode et à son lieu d'emploi, par opposition aux mots "plaster" et "mortar". 5, record 2, French, - stucco

Stucco, in art, is a fine plaster made of sand, water, lime, gypsum (plaster of Paris) and, sometimes, pulverized marble and glue, in varying proportions. It may be applied to interior or exterior walls or to ceilings, furniture, or sculpture to form a weatherproof coating, a smooth surface, or relief decoration achieved by modeling, molding, or stamping when wet or by incising when dry. It can also be formed into figures in the round. Stucco is white, but it may be tinted or painted. 3, record 3, English, - stucco
