[1739 [1735], P. Du Halde, “Geographical Obſervations on the Kingdom of Corea”, in The General History Of China, 2nd edition, volume IV, →OCLC, page 391:

The Tumen river separates Corea from Manchooria, except in the last few miles of its course, when it flows by Russian territory, the south-eastern corner of Siberia. The Yalu river also divides Corea from Manchooria.

1895, Trumbull White, The War in the East Japan, China, and Corea, Philadelphia: P.W. Ziegler & Co., →OCLC, →OL, page 374:

More recently, work has been opened in a town on the Yalu River, about 500 miles by boat from Dairen.

1935, A. W. Yocum, “From Dairen, Manchuria-Organized 1925”, in Annual of the Southern Baptist Convention, Memphis, TN, page 206:

In an effort to limit the war to the borders of Korea, the United Nations forces were prohibited by political directive from firing across the Yalu River—a prohibition which made a sanctuary of Manchurian territory.

1963, Dwight Eisenhower, Mandate for Change 1953-1956, Garden City, New York: Doubleday & Company, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 176:

Soon after the start of the Russian-instigated North Korean invasion of South Korea in June 1950, Peiping sent 200,000 “volunteers” across the Yalu.

1973 May 27, “Mao still embraces Stalin cult”, in Free China Weekly, volume XIV, number 20, Taipei, →ISSN, →OCLC, page 2:

By this time, Kim II Sung already had the assurances of the Chinese that they would not allow his government to fall without a fight. So he retreated to Sinuiju, on the Korean side of the Yalu, just across from the Manchurian industrial center of Antung, and shouted curses over the radio waves at the United Nations, President Syngman Rhee, and the United States.

1984, Edwin P. Hoyt, “To the Yalu”, in On to the Yalu, New York: Stein and Day, →ISBN, →LCCN, →OCLC, →OL, page 247:

Positioned near the mouth of the Yalu River, Dandong is China’s largest border town, and much of North Korea’s trade with the world flows across its old bridges or through its deepwater port.

The Tumen river separates Corea from Manchooria, except in the last few miles of its course, when it flows by Russian territory, the south-eastern corner of Siberia.

The Tumen is not yet so important as the Yalu, but with the development of a rival to Vladivostock, now a closed port, in Hunchun, it is acquiring greater importance.

1910, The Provinces of China, Together with a History of the First Year of H.I.M. Hsuan Tung, and an Account of the Government of China, Shanghai: The National Review Office, →OCLC, →OL, page 155:

Springing northeast from Paektu, the cold Tumen River separates Korea from eastern Manchuria and Siberia. On the Yalu and along the swift-flowing tributaries of the Tumen stand the Japanese-built hydroelectric plants which, until the power lines were cut by the Communists at the 38th parallel, provided 90% of the electricity used in all Korea.

1950 July 24, “Background for War”, in Time, volume LVI, number 4, →ISSN, →OCLC, page 30:

A ride along the Chinese shore of the Tumen River illustrated its potential for development.

Hill 930 here, about 100 miles northeast of Seoul, just above the village of Wontong, towers over a region still called the Punchbowl because that is what it looked like to G.I.'s during the Korean War.[…]

Reuss

en-proper noun

Reuss (countable and uncountable, plural Reusses)

German surname for a cobbler, from the obsolete Middle High German (alt)riusse. Also from the noun Russe (“Russian”).
For the river see Reuss below.

A river in Switzerland, spanning from its source in Uri to its mouth in Aargau.


Reuss

Reuss (genitive)
Reuss (nominative singular)
Reuss (genitive singular)
Reuss (dative singular)
Reuss (accusative singular)

From an earlier form Rusa, first attested in 1296.
Ptolemy recorded the river's Pre-Germanic name as Silana, which is reflected in the name Silenen. The Germanic name for the river is attested as Rusa or Rusia from the 9th century, and was occasionally recorded as Ursa in the Early Modern period (compare Urseren). This name likely derives from the early Germanic *Rūsi or the oblique form *Rūsjō-.
Greule (1982) interprets the name as an Old European hydronym, closely related to Riß. Given Ptolemy’s record of the pre-Germanic name Silana, it is possible that only part of the river was known as Rūsi in antiquity. Alternatively, Rūsi may have been introduced as a Germanic name during the early medieval period, potentially derived from Old High German rūsa, riusa (“fish trap”) (see the modern Reuse).
