Missing terms

  • 323-5 missing: Le mot nourrisson 5 ne s’applique, à proprement parler, qu’aux enfants qui n’ont pas encore été sevrés. Le mot bébé 6, par lequel on désigne d’ordinaire un enfant incapable de marcher seul est peu usité en démographie; on lui préfère l’expression enfant en bas âge 6.
In the very early days of life, the child is called newborn 4. The term infant 6 may be used to denote a child who has not reached its first birthday, though in colloquial language it may be applied to slightly older children. --Nicolas Brouard 00:53, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
  • 324-7 missing (simplification): Faute de pouvoir préciser objectivement le début de la vieillesse6, on convient généralement de la faire commencer à un âge uniforme, éventuellement voisin de l’âge de la retraite 7
Old age 6 is frequently used to define the period of life during which most persons are retired.--Nicolas Brouard 00:53, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
