Ces deux expressions [«handle with care» et «fragile»] sont bien caractéristiques du génie propre de chaque langue. L'anglais, plus concret, dit explicitement ce qu'il faut faire; le français, plus abstrait, se contente de donner une caractéristique du colis et laisse aux manipulateurs le soin de tirer les conclusions concernant le soin à prendre. 3, record 2, French, - fragile
