Pearl River

Calque of 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, →ISBN, →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.

Zachris Topelius
fi:Karl Collan
fi:Roine

Unknown. Theories have included connection with a dialectal term roine (“roar, thunder, noise”) (~ roikua?) and a comparison to Indo-European *kroyn-is (whence Proto-Germanic *hrainiz (“clean, pure”)).
The surname and given name were inspired by depictions of the lake in popular literature in the 19th century, such as in poems by Zachris Topelius and Karl Collan.


裡海

/li²¹⁴⁻³⁵ xaɪ̯²¹⁴⁻²¹⁽⁴⁾/

/lɵy̯¹³ hɔːi̯³⁵/

/li²¹⁴⁻³⁵ xaɪ̯²¹⁴⁻²¹⁽⁴⁾/

/lɵy̯¹³ hɔːi̯³⁵/

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).
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.

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.

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, →ISBN, →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, →ISBN, →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.

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.

2003, Máire Cruise O'Brien, “A Celebration of the Irish Language”, in The Same Age as the State: The Autobiography of Máire Cruise O’Brien, Dublin: O'Brien Press, →ISBN, part I (Alternative Lifestyle):

(geography) Of a geographical region: accessible only through a body of seawater, and having no access by land.
