message: Re: ... across northeast Asia for over 4400 km (2,700 mi), from the mountains of northeastern China to the Sea of Okhotsk (near Nikolayevsk-na-Amure).
Isn't this supposed to be northwestern China — it's all in North China, but traces an arc concave down from the East at the Sea, Westwards to Mongolia. User:Fabartus || Talkto_FrankB 29 June 2005 03:50 (UTC)
:No, it is definitely northeastern China. China as it exists today extends well west of Mongolia, the Amur watershed includes eastern Mongolia and most of what was known as Manchuria. Fire Star 29 June 2005 03:53 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I notice that the article makes a point of mentioning that the river would often just be called "water" and that multiple nearby languages have similar words for that.
However, the Mongolian word "mörön" is more commonly translated as "river", not just "water" ("us" is usually cited as the word for "water").
Does/did "mörön" carry that simpler meaning too, or is the writer of that part of the article trying to make associations of words with similar as opposed to identical meaning (in which case the wording would be wrong, since not all three words mean "water")? It might be worth noting that the source was published in 1980 and that the Altaic theory was still very much alive back then.
Also, on a slightly related topic, the etymology given in the infobox is nowhere to be found in the article, so that might require some clarification.
