Bien que ce qui constitue une discrimination sexuelle varie d'un pays à un autre, l'essentiel est qu'il s'agisse d'un acte malveillant par une personne contre une autre personne qui n'aurait pas eu lieu si la personne était d'un autre sexe. La discrimination par le sexe se manifeste sous différentes formes, contre les hommes et les femmes, et reflète souvent des relations de pouvoir dans les sociétés. 7, record 1, French, - discrimination%20sexuelle

Ce type de chaudière [chaudière à eau chaude] s'est fortement développé (...) s'adaptant désormais, pour la majorité des modèles, au type de production de chaleur utilisé : chaudière à charbon, à bois, à mazout, à gaz, électrique, outre les chaudières, dites polycombustibles qui acceptent généralement deux sources d'énergie, par exemple fuel et bois. 4, record 5, French, - chaudi%C3%A8re%20%C3%A0%20mazout

Le mazout brûle difficilement à l'état liquide. Il faut préalablement le vaporiser ou le pulvériser. Une chaufferie à mazout comprend donc essentiellement: a) Une citerne de stockage (...) b) Un brûleur (...) c) Une chaudière analogue aux chaudières à charbon mais, naturellement, sans grille. Elle comprend donc uniquement une chambre de combustion où brûlent les vapeurs de mazout, entourée d'une enveloppe à double paroi (échangeur) remplie d'eau qui s'échauffe par conduction et rayonnement. 5, record 5, French, - chaudi%C3%A8re%20%C3%A0%20mazout

Fournaise: Ce terme est considéré comme impropre par les puristes. Selon Dagenais dans son, Dictionnaire des difficultés de la langue françaises au Canada", "fournaise" serait un calque de l'anglais "furnace" et nous devrions plutôt dire "chaudière" lorsque le fluide caloporteur est l'eau ou la vapeur et "générateur d'air chaud", lorsque le fluide, est l'air. Cependant, ce terme reste d'usage fréquent au Québec, autant en langue parlée qu'en langue écrite. 6, record 5, French, - chaudi%C3%A8re%20%C3%A0%20mazout

The jam occurs when the stop plate on the rudder horn is forced aft of the stop bolt head. The forward edge of the stop plate can then become lodged under the head of the stop bolt causing the rudder to jam in this over-travel position. 1, record 7, English, - stop%20plate
