L'adjectif basique est correctement utilisé en français pour désigner un sel basique qui peut formellement libérer un anion OH-. Il est fortement déconseillé de l'utiliser en français dans le cas d'un sel acide contenant un ou plusieurs cations H+; on doit donc éviter le nom «phosphate dibasique de calcium dihydrate» qui est un anglicisme de mauvais aloi. 1, record 1, French, - hydrog%C3%A9nophosphate%20de%20calcium%20dihydrate
