parc à homards : On semble parler de «parc» surtout pour désigner un «parc à marée» («tidal pound» en anglais), mais ce terme, comme le terme «vivier», convient en principe pour désigner d'autres structures ou installations servant à la conservation des homards vivants. 2, record 1, French, - parc%20%C3%A0%20homards
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
vivier à homards : Le terme «vivier» peut avoir le sens de «bassin», de «réservoir» ou «d'enclos» où sont conservés des poissons ou des crustacés vivants. On trouve donc le terme «vivier à homards» aussi employé pour désigner des notions proches mais plus spécifiques. 2, record 1, French, - parc%20%C3%A0%20homards
