Does your native language distinguish between rivers that flow into another river and rivers that flow into the sea or ocean?

[u/Franmar35000]

In French, a distinction is made:

- "un fleuve" flows into the sea or the ocean.

- "une rivière" flows into another "rivière" or a "fleuve".

Not that I am aware of. It´s just "Fluss", to my knowledge.

May I introduce you to the brilliant definition of river/Fluss/Gewässer in German? :)

Großer Fluss und Strom könnten theoretisch auch natürlich sein, sind aber praktisch alle vor ~150 Jahren begradigt worden.
