Krka (Sava)
The Krka (; german: Gurk, ; la, Corcoras) is a river in southeastern Slovenia (the traditional region of Lower Carniola), a right tributary of the Sava. With a length of , it is the second-longest river flowing in its entirety in Slovenia, following the Savinja. Name The name ''Krka'' was first attested in written sources in 799 as ''Corca'' (and as ''Gurke'' in 1025, and ''in Gurka fluvio'' in 1249). The Slovene name is derived from Slavic *, based on the Romance name *''Corcra'' or *''Corca'', derived in turn from ''Corcora''. Many rivers had this name, or similar names, in antiquity. The name is believed to be of pre-Romance origin and may be based on onomatopoeia. Sources The Krka sources in a karst spring, lying in a pocket valley below Krka Cave, north of the village of Krka, around southeast of Ljubljana, before flowing southeast.

River
A river is a natural flowing watercourse, usually freshwater, flowing towards an ocean, sea, lake or another river. In some cases, a river flows into the ground and becomes dry at the end of its course without reaching another body of water. Small rivers can be referred to using names such as Stream#Creek, creek, Stream#Brook, brook, rivulet, and rill. There are no official definitions for the generic term river as applied to Geographical feature, geographic features, although in some countries or communities a stream is defined by its size. Many names for small rivers are specific to geographic location; examples are "run" in some parts of the United States, "Burn (landform), burn" in Scotland and northeast England, and "beck" in northern England. Sometimes a river is defined as being larger than a creek, but not always: the language is vague. Rivers are part of the water cycle. Water generally collects in a river from Precipitation (meteorology), precipitation through a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
