نهر الزرقاء
Hydronyms from various languages may all share a common etymology. For example, the Danube, Don, Dniester, Dnieper, and Donets rivers all contain the Scythian name for "river" (cf. , "river, water" in modern Ossetic). A similar suggestion is that the [[Jordan River|Yarden]], [[Yarkon River|Yarkon]], and [[Yarmouk River|Yarmouk]] (and possibly, with distortion, [[Zarqa River|Yabbok]] and/or [[Wadi Mujib|Arnon]]) rivers in the [[Israel]]/[[Jordan]] area contain the [[Egyptian language|Egyptian]] word for river ("itrw", transliterated in the [[Bible]] as "ye'or").
