Why is Portable used for cellphone and téléphone used for phone? Aren't they the same thing? I guess in English we just say phone, and other languages have a word for the phone in your pocket (cellphone) and a phone plugged into a wall?

@Miraculouslyokay yeah i know we have a wors for it, i was just saying we never say telephone. In a normal conversation we just say phone regardless of the type I was wondering if the same applies to french or do they separate it
