Suspensions of solid particles of colloidal size in liquids are called sols. Suspensions of either solid or liquid particles in a gas are called aerosols. Emulsions are suspensions of liquid droplets in a second liquid. Foams are suspensions of liquid droplets in either a liquid or a solid. For both emulsions and foams the suspended particles are frequently substantially larger than the usual colloidal range and also, in the case of foams, the continuous medium is often so thin as it surrounds the gas bubbles as to be itself in the colloidal state. 4, record 3, English, - sol

For the purpose of the Canadian taxonomic system, the earth's surface (the material that is to be classified) is divided into soil and nonsoil. Soil is the naturally occurring, unconsolidated, mineral or organic material at the earth's surface that is capable of supporting plant growth. It extends from the surface to 15 cm (6 inches) below the depth at which properties produced by soil-forming processes can be detected. 3, record 5, English, - soil

En taxonomie canadienne, on distingue deux sortes de matériaux à la surface de la terre (objet de la classification) : le sol et le non-sol. On qualifie de sol le matériau naturel, non consolidé, minéral ou organique, qui peut maintenir la croissance des plantes. Le sol s'étend depuis la surface jusqu'à une profondeur de 15 cm (6 po) au-dessous de la limite de détection des caractères attribuables aux processus de la formation des sols. 2, record 5, French, - sol
