Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS

There is a slight difference between "poaching" and "interception". The first term implies a resolve to move over to one’s partner’s side of the court, whether one is expecting to make contact with the ball or not. The second term implies less doubt as to whether the ball will come or not. It will come and the player will meet the ball to put it away. In general, the French term "interception" conveys both English meanings. Related terms: cross, switch, to cut to the middle, to pick off the return of service.  3, record 4, English, - poach

Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Au golf, la pénalité est l'ajout d'un coup ou plus à la fiche du golfeur sans que ce dernier ne joue effectivement ces coups. En soi, «pénalité» n'est donc pas synonyme absolu de «coup de pénalité», l'un étant l'effet ou la conséquence et l'autre, le moyen, que l'on appelait déjà «coup d'amende», le joueur devant s'amender pour avoir contrevenu au règlement ou ayant à corriger une situation.  3, record 5, French, - coup%20de%20p%C3%A9nalit%C3%A9
