Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Au Canada, on utilise «allée» tandis qu'en France, l'anglicisme «fairway» est couramment accepté; «practice fairway» doit donc l'être aussi. 2, record 1, French, - all%C3%A9e%20d%27entra%C3%AEnement
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
En France, «practice» est utilisé dans le sens d'entraînement». Un tel usage est à proscrire pour deux raisons : «practice» est écrit inutilement à l'anglaise, d'une part, et «pratique», d'autre part, signifie «application de principes» et non le fait de s'exercer ou de s'entraîner. 2, record 1, French, - all%C3%A9e%20d%27entra%C3%AEnement
