neutral  Sandra & Kenneth Grossman: "Deciduous trees are termed `hard`, while those that keep their leaves all year are `soft`. Am impresia ca "hardwood" e un tip de lemn masiv cu utilizari specifice, desi s-ar putea sa ma insel.

  -> Nu am nimic impotriva acestui termen. Discutia este vizavi de tipul lemnului nu al copacului. "Hardwood" este o alta varianta utilizata
