6 Rivers
The English word river can be either fleuve or rivière in French. Major rivers, all of which flow into the sea, are fleuves: the rest are rivières. Here are some examples of fleuves in France: la Garonne, la Loire, la Seine, le Rhin, le Rhône and la Somme: other fleuves include: le Nil, le Danube, le Gange, le Tage, l’Indus, l’Amazone, le Congo, le Mississippi, le Niger and le Saint-Laurent.The following French rivers are rivières: la Marne, l’Oise, l’Allier, la Dordogne, la Saône.As in English, French uses the definite article with names of rivers:the Thames= la Tamiseto go down the Rhine= descendre le Rhinto live near the Seine= habiter près de la Seinethe course of the Danube= le cours du DanubeIn English you can say the X, the X river or the river X. In French it is always le X (or la X):the river Thames= la Tamisethe Potomac river= le PotomacWhen the name of the river is used as an adjective, French has de + definite article:Seine barges= les péniches de la Seinea Rhine castle= un château des bords du Rhinthe Rhine estuary= l’estuaire du Rhin -
