Usage Note
Grillage refers to wire mesh or metal fencing used as a barrier, such as around a garden or on windows. It differs from grille (a rigid grate or grid) in that grillage is typically flexible wire netting. A common compound is grillage galvanisé ('galvanised wire mesh'). The verb griller shares the root but primarily means 'to grill (food)'.
Examples
"Le jardin est entouré d'un grillage."
Natural Translation
The garden is surrounded by wire fencing.
