Romanian term or phrase: hardwood
hardwood floor - este vorba de podea din lemn de esenţă tare sau podea din lemn masiv? (adică formată din scânduri, cherestea, în loc de plăci laminate, de exemplu)

Multumesc

podea din lemn masiv
Explanation:
hardwood floor = podea din lemn masiv
engineered hardwood floor = podea din placi de lemn laminate
laminated floor = podea din placi de MDF laminate
http://www.armstrong.com/flooring/hardwood.html

Initial hardwood floors se referea la pardoselile de lemn masiv; mai putin cele din lemn de rasinoase (softwood floors). Intre timp, datorita tehnologiilor moderne care permit producerea unei pardoseli din aproape orice tip de lemn, demarcatia s-a pierdut; spre exemplul pardoselile din lemn de tisa sunt mai rezistente decat cele din lemn de artar (acesta din urma folosit cu precadere pentru pardoseli in sali de sport)
In esenta (pun intended LOL) hardwood floor acopera, acum, gama pardoselilor din lemn masiv.
