QUÉ SIGNIFICA RIVER EN INGLÉS
Río
Un río es un curso de agua natural, generalmente de agua dulce, que fluye hacia un océano, un lago, un mar u otro río. En raros casos, un río podría fluir al suelo y secarse completamente al final de su curso, sin llegar a otro cuerpo de agua. Los ríos pequeños pueden ser llamados por varios otros nombres, incluyendo la corriente, el arroyo, el arroyo, el rivulet, y el rill. No hay definiciones oficiales de términos genéricos, como el río, como se aplica a las características geográficas, aunque en algunos países o comunidades un arroyo puede ser definido por su tamaño. Muchos nombres para los pequeños ríos son específicos a la localización geográfica; Ejemplos se "ejecutan" en algunas partes de los Estados Unidos, "queman" en Escocia y noreste de Inglaterra, y "beck" en el norte de Inglaterra. A veces un río se define como más grande que un arroyo, pero no siempre: el lenguaje es vago. Los ríos forman parte del ciclo hidrológico. El agua generalmente se recoge en un río de la precipitación a través de una cuenca de drenaje de escorrentía superficial y otras fuentes tales como recarga de agua subterránea, manantiales y la liberación de agua almacenada en hielo natural y capas de nieve. La potamología es el estudio científico de los ríos mientras que la limnología es el estudio de las aguas continentales en general.
