Subject field(s)
  • Racquet Sports
DEF

A ground stroke played by left-handers to the left of the body, and by right-handers to the right.

CONT

For the right-handed player, all strokes on the right side of the body are forehand and all strokes on the left side of the body are backhand.

CONT

When Greg Rusedski hits a tennis ball, it seems to involve a lot of moving parts. A lean six-foot-four and 190 pounds, he’s all arms and legs as he whomps his big serve and whacks his forehands and backhands.

CONT

After Becker plopped a forehand into the net, he offered a perfunctory handshake at the net without even glancing at Voinea.

OBS

Both the French and Spanish make much use of the anglicism "drive", albeit not in a correct fashion: In English "drive" is supposed to imply a ball hit with a lot of pace to win a point outright, regardless of the type of spin used to accomplish this task, and regardless of which side it is hit (forehand or backhand). (The terms "shot" and "stroke", being more neutral, need not imply any added spin whatsoever.) However in both French and Spanish, "drive" is also used often as a synonym for "forehand" (shot/stroke).

PHR

Backspin, blistering, crosscourt, dipping, dishrag, dodgy, flat, full, inside-out, lefthanded, powerful, running, scorching, sharp, slice, topspin, whippy, winning forehand.

DEF

[...] coup après rebond de la balle effectué habituellement au fond du terrain, du côté du corps dont la main tient la raquette.

CONT

Pour un droitier, tous les coups donnés à droite sont considérés comme des coups droits et à gauche comme des revers.

OBS

Dans une source européenne on relève, «un droit» (décocher des droits foudroyants) pour signifier le coup droit, mais aussi, et de façon incorrecte, l'anglicisme «drive» admis en Europe. Ce dernier terme signifie en réalité «un coup puissant renvoyant la balle avec force en lui faisant raser le filet» et ne doit pas être utilisé comme synonyme de coup droit, tout coup frappé avec la paume de la main faisant face au mouvement de la balle, que le coup soit exécuté de la droite ou de la gauche.

OBS

À éviter l'anglicisme générique «drive». Ce terme peut être aussi synonyme de «coup d'attaque». À propos, il existe divers types de coups droits : à plat, lifté (généralement à vocation offensive), coupé (souvent coup d'attente).

Subject field(s)
  • Racquet Sports
DEF

The result of hitting the tennis ball with a tennis racquet; sometimes refers to the actual placement of the ball or manner in which it is struck.

CONT

A shot is the combination of a stroke and the situation in which it is used.

OBS

"Long" is an informal expression used to indicate that a shot went out past the baseline. Important nuance: a "stroke" implies early preparation and a complete follow through. If one were to envision a stroke, one would see a series of sequences, ending with a "shot", i.e. the result of all of the above. Consequently, a "shot" is the result of the "stroke". "Shot" implies a quick, sharp movement because one is focusing on the end result, not the series of sequences leading up to it. A "blow" is rather an imprecise, general term similar in meaning to "shot". Although many would like to maintain these nuances in English, "shot" and "stroke" are often used synonymously. "Blow" is used only rarely. Note, however that although there are two possible equivalents ("coup" and "frappe") in French, neither are semantically identical to the English offerings. The Spanish term "pegada" works well as an equivalent for "shot", although technically the term more specifically refers to the actual hitting action caused by the racket coming in contact with the ball, and not to the end result [cause vs effect].

CONT

Keeping your feet wide apart is an important key to maintaining good balance and positioning while moving from shot to shot.

A valve which controls pressure, volume, or flow direction in a fluid transmission system.

CONT

Pneumatic systems are often compared to hydraulic systems, but such comparisons can only hold true in general terms.... Control valves are... a necessary part of a typical pneumatic system.... The control valve consists of a lever with two lobes. [In the off position], a spring holds the left poppet closed so that compressed air entering the pressure port cannot flow to the brakes. [In the on position], one lobe of the lever holds the left poppet open and a spring closes the right poppet. Compressed air now flows around the opened left poppet, through a drilled passage, and into a chamber below the right poppet. Since the right poppet is closed, the high-pressure air flows out of the brake port and into the brake line to apply the brakes. To release the brakes, the control valve is returned to the off position.

An electronic hand-held weather recording device used, for instance, by car racing teams, sailors, farmers, outdoor and weather enthusiasts.

CONT

... hand held weather stations take about every weather factor into consideration. ... Very sophisticated ones not only measure weather conditions every second but make E.T. or throttle stop predictions every 4 seconds. A sophisticated drag racing weather station will allow you to store data on as many as 256 previous runs and performs an analysis to give you a prediction based on the weather conditions instantly. It can keep and use separate databases for separate vehicles, tracks, or classes. Some of the really sophisticated stations have a prediction deviation function [which] gives a reliability value of the prediction. It gives you a margin of error based on the information in the database that you chose. Within the last few years, windmeters have been added to the weather station box of tricks.

CONT

The Kestrel line of wind meters or anemometers... in less than 60 seconds, provide the answer to the major spraying season question that haunts producers each morning :"How windy is it?" The Kestrel 1000... gives a fast answer to wind speed average and gusts.... the model 2000 will add temperature and for those really cold days on the sprayer, add wind chill to that list. The 3000 adds humidity, dew point and heat stress index.... But for an all out weather station you can hold in the palm of your hand, the Kestrel 4000 provides all of this, in addition to wet bulb, altitude, air density and barometric pressure. Most importantly, 250 of these readings can be recorded in the device's memory and later transferred to the farm computer.... Michael Naughton of Nielsen Keller-man said the company released the 1000 in 1999 with the intention of it being a tool for sailors and outdoor sports and weather enthusiasts. "Farmers are turning out to be a really big part of our business. The 4000 is really popular with them. We were surprised by the demand for little hand-held weather stations, "he said.

NCHBs [Navy Cargo Handling Battalions] operate most effectively when employed solely on ship loading and discharge operations and when each of its 16 seven-man hatch teams is augmented by 7 unskilled or stevedore personnel provided by the supported unit or activity. When augmented with 112 personnel (7 per hatch team), a NCHB can achieve a ship discharge rate of approximately 2880 MTONs per day pier-side, and approximately 1920 MTONs per day discharge rate in-stream.

CONT

Within their hatch teams, battalion personnel in all of the team positions : hatch captain, hold boss, crane operator, signalman and stevedore, practiced the skills necessary to demonstrate their competence during next year's assessment. Hatch team coordination, safety, crane operation, signaling, tag line handling, hatch cover heavy-lifts, and container lifts were just a few of the skills practiced.

For projects using brick, make certain you have a brick trowel, brick chisel, mason's hammer, 4 ft. level, tape measure, pointing trowel, jointing tool, mason's line, wood line blocks and spirit level. The height and thickness of your walls are always important... Be sure to leave a space between bricks for your joint. This method is best to determine the spacing of your bricks. Then, drive a stake in the ground at both ends of your wall and stretch mason's line between them. The line will serve as a straight line guide and should mark the outside edge and top of your first course of bricks. Later, as you proceed, the guideline can be moved up to match each successive course of bricks. Line blocks can be used to hold line in place... When laying bricks, always start at the corners and keep the corners higher than the rest of your work. Work from the corners toward the center of your wall. Use the level frequently to check level and plumb. As the wall increases in height, move the line blocks up to the ends of your corner lead.

CONT

Use plastic line blocks to attach line to corners and ends, which are always built up first. Lay bricks flush with line, but do not push it out. Line blocks, unlike pins and nails, leave no holes in mortar to be filled in later.

The most efficient method of verifying the integrity of a new existing sewer line is through low pressure air testing. To test a line to meet acceptance standards, the line is plugged at both manholes using the isolator Leak Locator Pluggs. The line is then pressurized using the isolator Air Test Panel to control both the plug inflation and test section pressures. To pass the acceptance test, the sewer must retain a specified air pressure for a specific period of time. Failure to hold the pressure indicates that a leak is present.
