Another problem involving the use of words is the question of "conditional assault". If one person points a gun at another and says, "Your money or your life!", it might be argued that it is not assault because the plaintiff may avoid any harm by complying with the condition and parting with his money. It could be contended that the requirement of immediacy is absent. Such an argument is fallacious, however, for one cannot impose conditions upon another, when one has no legal right to do so. It would be otherwise of a landowner said to a trespasser, "Get off my land or I’ll throw you off, "for in such a case, the landowner is only threatening to do what he is entitled to do anyway. 1, record 2, English, - conditional%20assault

Un autre problème relié aux paroles est celui des «voies de fait conditionnelles». Si un individu braque une arme sur quelqu'un en lui disant : «la bourse ou la vie!», on pourrait soutenir qu'il n'y a pas de voies de fait parce que le demandeur peut éviter tout préjudice en se soumettant à la condition et en se défaisant de son argent. On pourrait soutenir que le caractère d'imminence est absent, mais cet argument est faux car personne ne peut, sans justification, imposer des conditions à une autre personne. La situation serait différente si un propriétaire disait à un intrus «Si vous ne déguerpissez pas, je vous expulserai moi-même!», puisque, dans ce cas, le propriétaire menace seulement de faire ce qu'il a le droit de faire de toute façon. 2, record 2, French, - voies%20de%20fait%20conditionnelles

Le larmier est le membre le plus saillant de la corniche. La face du larmier est droite, mais il est creusé en dessous d'une sorte de canal qui règne sur toute sa longueur. C'est ce canal qui a fait donner à la moulure entière le nom sous lequel on le désigne, car il empêche les eaux de pluie amenées par le toit de couler le long du mur de l'édifice [...] Par analogie, on donne encore le nom de larmier : 1. à toute saillie qui est hors de l'aplomb d'une muraille, et qui a pour objet d'empêcher que l'eau ne découle le long du mur; 2. à la pièce de bois qu'on met en saillie au bas d'un châssis de croisée ou de porte, pour empêcher l'eau de pénétrer à l'intérieur. 3, record 13, French, - larmier
