Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Employé au pluriel, «appartements» désigne un ensemble de pièces dans une demeure luxueuse, ce qui correspond davantage au contexte actuel que l'acception du terme au singulier, qui, selon le Lexis, est un «local d'habitation, composé de plusieurs pièces contiguës, dans un immeuble qui comporte plusieurs de ces locaux». 3, record 1, French, - appartements%20du%20Pr%C3%A9sident%20du%20S%C3%A9nat
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
Bien que l'usage français préconise l'emploi de la minuscule pour les titres de poste, la majuscule à Président et à Présidente est obligatoire dans les documents concernant les délibérations parlementaires, car elle permet de faire la distinction entre le Président du Sénat et les présidents des comités. 3, record 1, French, - appartements%20du%20Pr%C3%A9sident%20du%20S%C3%A9nat
