I did not simply agree because as the asker pointed out, it is sometimes annoying with unreferenced answers

As far as my answer is concerned, I do have a reference : p 137

which matches the definition in french here:

You didn't look in the right place.
Have a good day.
Note from asker:
I used the same translation, I'm asking it here because I am strongly questioning this translation. Namely because the word 'axoid' does not show up in any of my dictionaries, nor (in a relevant context) when I google it. Do you happen to have any reference for this?
