Tortoises are Turtles, but not all Turtles are Tortoises.

This isn't an English thing, this is a taxonomy thing. It should be the same in any language, just with different words used.

    Both are translated "tortue" in french However to be fair, it could be specified "Tortue marine" and "Tortue terrestre"
