recherche et sauvetage en mer; recherche et sauvetage maritimes : L’expression «recherche et sauvetage» renvoie à deux actions distinctes. Dans le corps d'un texte, il est donc préférable d’expliciter les articles : la recherche et le sauvetage. Lorsque l'accord en genre et en nombre est nécessaire, l’expression s’accorde au masculin pluriel. 3, record 2, French, - recherche%20et%20sauvetage%20en%20mer
