In some bidding situations, one partner essentially asks a question and the other has a choice of stepped responses.
For example, a bid of 4NT asks partner how many Aces they have and a 5C reply typically means "no aces", 5D means "one ace", 5H means "two aces", 5S means "three aces". How would one describe this?
"Palier" is used for the level of the "enchère" e.g. "les enchères aux paliers dépassant le palier de 2" but that doesn't seem quite right here.

: Your reference does not indicate by any means that this term is used at all.//Ce n'est pas le terme "palier" qui est en cause !

Je joue au bridge. Le terme de palier a le sens de "niveau" d'echère. la page cite " chaque palier franchi correspond à un nombre d'as croissant (5♣ pour 0 as, 5♦ pour 1 as, etc.) " / Dans un schéma 30-41, le premier palier correspond à 3 ou 0 as, (...)

Note from asker:
| Thanks Odile. Yes, definitely an option - your link describes exactly the situation I was describing. I'm going to go with paliers though as probably more usual. |
