Le terme de stériles désigne, pour tout mineur, la roche qui ne contient pas ou plus de minerai, ou trop peu pour en rendre l'exploitation rentable. Elle est stérile au sens premier du terme «qui ne produit pas», par opposition à «fertile», c'est donc une appellation liée à l'économie et non, comme on pourrait le penser par association d'idées, à la protection. Elle pourrait désigner dans l'industrie de l'extraction de l'uranium l'ensemble des résidus miniers et de traitement, comme ce serait le cas pour tout autre minerai traité sur place. Cependant, pour éviter la confusion, on préfère, pour l'uranium, réserver le terme de stériles aux roches déplacées pour permettre l'exploitation d'un gisement et dont la teneur est soit quasi nulle, soit trop faible pour qu'elles soient exploitables au cours du marché. 5, record 9, French, - st%C3%A9rile

S'il n'a pas administrativement parlant le statut officiel de territoire, le Nitassinan a été défini à des fins administratives. Le Nitassinan fait en effet l'objet de négociations territoriales impliquant les communautés innues ainsi que les gouvernements du Québec et du Canada. Aux termes de l'«Entente de principe d'ordre général entre les Premières nations de Mamuitun et de Nutashkuan, le gouvernement du Québec et le gouvernement du Canada», les limites du Nitassinan correspondent schématiquement au Saguenay Lac-Saint-Jean, c'est-à-dire aux municipalités régionales de comté (MRC) de la Haute-Côte-Nord et de Manicouagan, de la partie sud de la MRC de Caniapiscau et à la partie est de la MRC de Minganie. Ratifié en mars 2004, ce document définit le Nitassinan comme un territoire de pleine juridiction québécoise sur lequel les Innus disposent de certains droits. 2, record 13, French, - Nitassinan

[The Dictionary of American Regional English] notes a similar term "devil' s lane, "first appearing around 1872, meaning the unusable strip of land between two parallel fences, often the result of neighbors being unable to agree on a common fence. And another term, "devil' s footstep, "dates back to around 1860 and means "a spot of barren ground. "So it's not surprising that a strip of land next to the street, unusable by anyone, would be christened the "devil strip. " 1, record 36, English, - devil%20strip

According to The Dictionary of American Regional English (DARE), which pays close attention to such local lingo, "devil strip" is heard almost exclusively in Northeastern Ohio, up around Akron. DARE suggests that the term may arise from the strip’s legal status as a sort of "no man’s land" between public and private property. 1, record 36, English, - devil%20strip

The territory of the Western Shoshoni included central and western Idaho, northwestern Utah, central and northeastern Nevada, and Death Valley and Panamint Valley of California, largely barren and unproductive areas. They were sometimes referred to as "Diggers, "from their habit of digging plant roots with a stick as an important means of subsistence. Another name applied was Shoshoko, meaning "walkers", to distinguish them from the horse-owning Shoshoni. 2, record 60, English, - Digger

Digger: Said by Powell to be the English translation of Nuanuints, the name of a small tribe near St George, s.w. Utah,. It was the only Paiute tribe practising agriculture, hence the original signification of the name, "digger". In time the name was applied to every tribe known to use roots extensively for food and hence to be "diggers." It thus included very many of the tribes of California, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Nevada, and Arizona, tribes speaking widely different languages and embracing perhaps a dozen distinct linguistic stocks. As the root-eaters were supposed to represent a low type of Indian, the term speedily became one of opprobrium [pejorative]. 3, record 60, English, - Digger

Il n'y a pas de traduction officielle pour «Digger» parce qu'il s'agit d'une tribu qui n'aurait jamais eu affaires avec les explorateurs francophones. Les peuples de cette tribu résident pour la plupart dans les États de Nevada et d'Utah dans le sud-ouest des États-Unis. Ils parlent une langue d'origine Uto-Aztèque, langue qui a plus d'affinité avec les autochtones du Mexique qu'avec ceux des Plaines canadiennes. Il existe pourtant un nom français pour désigner la division amérindienne à laquelle les «Diggers» appartiennent : Shoshones de l'Ouest - équivalent le plus proche, quoique imprécis.
