En anglais, le substantif et le verbe «appeal» se disent, tout comme en français, d’un appel à n’importe quel tribunal, tandis qu’en français «pourvoi» a le sens technique de recours à un tribunal de dernier ressort, comme la Cour suprême du Canada et la Cour de cassation, en France, même si, en sens courant, il a le même sens général qu’en anglais. 5, record 1, French, - appel%20incident
