Mining & Minerals / Gems
English term or phrase: discourages it
Hi all,

Documentation about pink gems...

The term ‘rubellite’ is often used to describe red tourmaline, but the trade generally discourages it since it creates the misconception that the stone is somehow related to ruby.

Le terme "décourager" ne me convient pas ici...

Merci d'avance
