DEF

Petite pince utilisée pour fermer les sacs ou les sachets.

CONT

Les sacs pour le conditionnement des produits alimentaires sont fermés à l'aide d'un clip (N. Côte).

OBS

L'utilisation des formes clip ou clips est contestée par les lexicographes; contrairement aux dictionnaires Robert et Larousse, le Trésor de la langue française reprenant le Quillet considère la forme clips comme régulière; tous les autres dictionnaires consultés donnent cette forme comme une variante abusive de clip.
