Other than the correct definition, most of the references to talud I found by googling were in Spanish and referred to a slope of one kind or another. I actually became interested in this word when I was looking for the Indonesian word talud, which seems to mean a dyke or protective embankment of some kind. I was trying to get a more precise meaning by looking at it in different contexts and that's when I found the English and Spanish meanings. Presumably it came to Indonesian via Dutch, but I haven't found any Dutch sources.

Does anybody have words to correspond with the other definitions given?
