Les Tables de salon (Coffee Tables)
Rondina, Marisa; Gilbert, Rodrigue
Meta, 22, 2, 137-142, Jun 77
Terms for such things as furniture in English reflect function and are specific, not generic in nature. French equivalents are based on linguistic criteria. "Tables basses" or "tables de salon" are equivalents of "coffee tables"; they illustrate the tendency toward the generic of the French language. (Text is in French.) (AMH)
