Pearl River

Calque from Chinese 珠江 (literally “pearl river”).

Pirates have of late become so bold and murderous in their attacks upon the small sailing craft found in the delta of the Pearl river, and the islands interjacent, as to arouse the Chinese government to take strong measures to suppress and disperse them.

1843 January, “Journal of Occurrences : dispatches from Kiying : arrival of I'lipu ; shipwrecked Japanese”, in The Chinese Repository, volume XII, number 1, Canton, page 56

The task of directing thousands of pushcarts and tiny handicraft shops and millions of tiny farms and of controlling the flow of crucial supplies created headaches for officials everywhere and the Pearl River Delta area was justly famous for the flowering of tiny enterprises.

1969, Ezra Vogel, Canton under Communism: Programs and Politics in a Provincial Capital 1949-1968, Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 132

A Chinese-language broadcast from Moscow said the Tienanmen crowds were indeed against Mao but the burning of vehicles and building was started by the Maoists to provide themselves with excuses for stepped-up suppression.
We don’t know whether this was the case, but we have learned that some 50,000 Peiping students have been sent to rural and frontier areas since the incident, that corpses have been floating down the Pearl River from Canton, and that the Maoists have been crying out savagely.

1976 April 25, L. Chen, “Mao's word is unanimous vote?”, in Free China Weekly, volume XVII, number 16, Taipei, →ISSN, →OCLC, page 3

Debt-laden real estate developer China Evergrande (3333.HK) has resumed construction of 63 projects in the southern Pearl River delta, a regional subsidiary said on Friday.

Literally "inland sea" or "inland lake", attested in the book 《海國聞見錄》 (An Account of Seas and Lands) by the 18th-century Qing naval officer Chen Lunjiong (陳倫烱).
裏海者，諸國環而繞之：東北細密里也，西北俄羅斯，東三馬爾丹，西惹鹿惹也，西南東多爾其，南包社大白頭。內注大海，不通海棹；其水惟從包社出海，故為裏海。 [Classical Chinese, trad.]里海者，诸国环而绕之：东北细密里也，西北俄罗斯，东三马尔丹，西惹鹿惹也，西南东多尔其，南包社大白头。内注大海，不通海棹；其水惟从包社出海，故为里海。 [Classical Chinese, simp.]
From: 陳倫烱 (1730) “小西洋記”, in 海國聞見錄 (in Chinese), volume 1, published 1793, page 29

The Inland Sea is surrounded by the following nations. To the northeast, Siberia; northwest, Russia; east, Samarkand; west, Georgia; southwest, East Turkey; and the south, Pars the Greater White-Turbans. It is a great inland sea into which rivers flow, and it is separated from the maritime routes. Its water only drains into the ocean from Pars. For this it is called the Inland Sea.
Chen's account contained numerous anachronisms and inaccuracies such as the supposed drainage from Persia. Nevertheless, later Chinese geographers such as Wei Yuan (魏源) and He Qiutao (何秋濤) quoted extensively from Chen. He Qiutao correctly identified the lake as truly endorheic.

goyle

Unknown. Found (initially) in the dialects of Somerset and Devon. Possibly related to gulley.

Into a deep goyle they plunge, and then up the far side to where a ploughman has halted his team that he may watch the sport. There the hounds come to a check suddenly.

1895, Oswald Crawfurd, A Year of Sport and Natural History: Shooting, Hunting, Coursing, Falconry and Fishing with Chapters on Birds of Prey, the Nidification of Birds and the Habits of British Wild Birds and Animals, page 16

They likewise passed into the deep goyle, where I could not see them, and then, almost immediately, the chorus ceased, nor for some minutes did I hear another sound.

Swerving from his course, he went crashing down the slope, like a boulder discharged from the crag above, sprang headlong into the water, and disappeared into a narrow deep goyle through which the river ran.

Before the brook flows past Pitminster Church, it passes through a deep goyle. Here it is crossed by a footpath leading from Woodram to the village of Blagdon Hill. The path is carried across the goyle on a wooden bridge.

1939, Notes and Queries for Somerset and Dorset ...

Following survey it was decided that elimination of the bend at Rushycombe would involve culverting and filling in a deep goyle, [and] that the filling for this job could be obtained from Telegraph Hill.

1958, Roads and Road Construction: A Monthly Record of Road Engineering and Development

The scene was very animated and interesting to watch but the effort of trying to make sense of so much confusion was exhausting and, from time to time, I turned away and deliberately lost myself in the deep goyle that ran down to the cove ...

1967, Ronald Frederick Delderfield, Cheap Day Return

Just south of the road, the infant stream descends into a deep goyle.

Huai River

Partial calque from Mandarin 淮河 (Huái Hé).

The Huai river and the sea formed the boundaries of Yangchow.

1895, Herbert J. Allen, “Ssŭma Chʻien's Historical Records”, in Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain & Ireland, →ISSN, →OCLC, page 97

In other sectors of our national life, giant and fundamental solutions have been undertaken for age-old problems, such as the floods with which the Huai river has plagued our people for thirty centuries.

1952 January-February, Soong Ching Ling, “Welfare Work and World Peace”, in China Reconstructs, volume 1, number 1, China Welfare Institute, →ISSN, →OCLC, page 2

Those "counterrevolutionaries" who were not executed were subjected to "reform through labor," a euphemism for slave labor, and participated in the intensive work which began on railway and road construction and water conservation schemes. The most important of the latter was the vaunted Huai River flood control project, which has been the subject of praise in all the accounts of fellow travelers who have visited China.

1955, Richard L. Walker, China Under Communism: The First Five Years, New Haven: Yale University Press, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 12

In 1938 the great stream was deflected to the south by the Chinese in a misplaced effort to delay the advance of Japanese forces moving southward from T'ien-ching (Tientsin) and Pei-ching (Peking); and it flowed southeastward into the Huai river system and thence through a series of lakes and the Grand Canal down into the Yangtze drainage area.

1969, Joseph Kitagawa, editor, Understanding Modern China, Quadrangle Books, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 49

It’s now called Huaihai Road, which commemorates the second great campaign of 1949, when Mao’s soldiers advanced from the Huai River to the sea, putting them in position to take Shanghai.

2011, Lisa See, Dreams of Joy, Oxford: ISIS Publishing, →OCLC, page 157

The creek connects the Xi River to factories along the Huai River, but it’s too shallow for large boats to navigate.

2013, Ma Jian, translated by Flora Drew, The Dark Road, Penguin Books, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 152

China on Sunday raised the flood alert level in the Huai River region in the country’s east to Level II from Level III, the second highest on its four-tier scale, after days of torrential downpours and amid expectations of further heavy rainfall.
Ten reservoirs on the Huai River have seen water levels exceeding warning levels by as much as 6.85 metres, according to the Huaihe River Commission of China’s Ministry of Water Resources.
The 1,000km (620 mile) Huai River flows through major agriculture and manufacturing hubs in Henan, Anhui and Jiangsu provinces.

2020 July 19, Muyu Xu, Xu Jing, Tom Daly, “China raises flood alert levels along Huai River”, in Lincoln Feast, editor, Reuters, archived from the original on 2020-07-19, Environment

A major river in central China, now a tributary of the Yangtze.

sealocked

From sea + locked, probably modelled after landlocked.

[John] Evelyn was astonished at the immense number of pictures he saw in the Dutch fairs. He attributes the briskness of the trade in paintings to the necessary limitations of the country. The farmer or the citizen of sea-locked Holland, unable to lay out his gains on tracts of land, found a medium for speculation or investment in these works of art.

1857 October, R. A. V., “Art History”, in Fraser’s Magazine for Town and Country, volume LVI, number CCCXXXIV, London: John W[illiam] Parker and Son, West Strand, →OCLC, page 500, column 1

She was surprised to see what rapid advance the waves had made, but there was still a narrow belt of dry sand; she stepped along it, expecting to find broad open coast beyond; she found herself, however, only in another cove, smaller than the one she had first entered, and this cove was already completely sea-locked.

1880, L. T. Meade [pseudonym; Elizabeth Thomasina Meade Smith], “By the Sea”, in Andrew Harvey’s Wife, London: W[illia]m Isbister, Limited, 56, Ludgate Hill, →OCLC, page 220

And is it not at all to be wondered at that when this gold leaves the government vaults, it seldom returns, for there are 40,000,000 Johnny Bulls that must have their teeth filled and they have no mines on their little sealocked island from which to extract the necessary filling.

1906, Northwestern Dental Journal, volume 4, Chicago, Ill.: Alumni Association, Northwestern University Dental School, →OCLC, page 81

In the great sealocked cave that broke the flank of Dunmore Head lived the Cyclops, and in my uncle's version of the tale, when Ulysses escaped from his terrible captivity he brought Séamus and Máire and Biddín (our housekeeper's daughter) with him, clinging to the undersides of the sheep; we did not as yet have Barbara.

Ussuri

This Nerchinsk Treaty, exacted literally at the cannon's mouth, was not only the first concluded between China and Russia, but the first between China and any foreign Power. It was essentially a boundary treaty, though free trade between the two countries was also provided for ; yet the Chinese made the fatal mistake of leaving the eastern frontier, beyond the line of the Ussuri, for future definition, their only excuse being ignorance of the country ; though the Ming Emperors Hun-wu (1368-98) and Yun-lo, in 1413, had sent expeditions to the lower Amoor ; built temples there ; and erected stone monuments, with inscriptions, that still exist.

1912 January, “Russo-Chinese Relations”, in The Edinburgh Review, volume CCXV, →OCLC, page 198

In Beijing’s view, in the absence of an explicit treaty provision, the central line of the main channel—the Thalweg principle—provided a legal basis for delimiting the boundary in the two rivers. On this basis, Beijing claimed that 600 of the rivers’ 700 islands—including Zhenbao Island on the Ussuri River, just 180 miles southwest of an important Soviet city, Khabarovsk—belonged to the P.R.C.

1980, Melvin Gurton, Byong-Moo Hwang, China under Threat: The Politics of Strategy and Diplomacy, Johns Hopkins University Press, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 210

In January 1969, Chinese and Soviet soldiers fought around Zhenbao Island in the Ussuri River.

2005, Michael P. Colaresi, “Climbing the Wall: The Sino-American Rivalry”, in Scare Tactics: The Politics of International Rivalry, Syracuse University Press, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 202

In 2008 Moscow ceded 174 square km (67 square miles) of land to Beijing on their shared border along the Ussuri and Amur Rivers, where the two powers exchanged fire in 1969, leaving nearly 60 dead.

2011 March 1, Thomas Grove, “Analysis: Russia turns military gaze east to counter China”, in Mark Trevelyan, editor, Reuters, archived from the original on 2017-08-19

Since the Ussuri River border skirmishes that marked the Sino-Soviet split in the 1960s, the Kremlin has perceived its long border with China as a security challenge as much as a commercial opportunity.

2014 November 10, Andrew E. Kramer, “Gazprom Makes a New Gas Deal With China”, in The New York Times, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 2014-11-11, INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS
