κώθων
Η λέξη κώθων χρησιμοποιείται για τους τεχνητούς λιμένες. Στην περίπτωσή σου νομίζω πως πρέπει να αφήσεις τον όρο μεταφρασμένο στα Ελληνικά. Η λέξη ΚΩΘΩΝ αρχικά αντιπροσώπευε ένα είδος κύπελου από την Σπάρτη για κρασί και ακριβώς επειδή το σχήμα του τεχνητού λιμένα έχει το ίδιο σχήμα γιαυτό ονομάστηκε και αυτός ΚΩΘΩΝ.
