Amortissement. Depreciation ou Dotation aux amortissements.

My comment:

Amortisation is for intangible assets
Depreciation is for tangible assets
Used on their own, the 2 terms mean "Dotation aux amortissements" (in the P&L and not the Balance Sheet)

My references:

My experience as an Accountant in several financial companies in the UK for more than 10 years
Business French Dictionary (Oxford)
