<< review queue entry 69676 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> 1) "frontier river" doesn't seem to be the best term. See GV results below. And although C-E dicts say "boundary river", "border river" seems better. GV results: "a frontier river between germany and" - 0 "a boundary river between germany and" - 0 "a border river between germany and" - 394 e.g. "In the Versailles Treaty, France received the sole right to expand the Rhine as a border river between Germany and France in 1919." "a frontier river between slovenia and" - 0 "a boundary river between slovenia and" - 0 "a border river between slovenia and" - 1,050 e.g. "The Natisone is a river that flows for some time as a border river between Slovenia and Italy, ..." 2) Unsurprisingly, various sources say 界河 can be a border river between *regions* (or provinces etc) -- not necessarily an "international boundary". 界河可以指: 1. 跨界河流:通常指用於區分兩個地區邊界的河流,一般適用於國與國層級、州郡層級、地方行政區(縣市或直轄市的區)層級等等,例如:中國東北,黑龍江目前是中俄之間的界河。或,美國中部阿肯色州與密西西比州的界河是密西西比河。 https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%95%8C%E6%B2%B3 Also, GF M LA |
