Le terme anglais pourrait être considéré comme un terme spécifique par rapport au terme français, en ce qu'il précise le tissu utilisé. De la même manière,le terme français pourrait également être considéré spécifique par rapport à l'anglais, en ce qu'il précise la couleur, alors que l'anglais laisse entendre que le vert n'est pas forcément la couleur du tissu ("often dyed green"). 2, record 1, French, - table%20recouverte%20d%27un%20tapis%20vert
