註釋
Terms for 「a small, fast-flowing stream」 vary throughout the eastern United States especially. Speakers in the eastern part of the Lower North (including Virginia, West Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, and southern Pennsylvania) use the word run, as in Bull Run. Speakers in New York State are liable to call such a stream a kill (a Dutch borrowing). Brook has come to be used throughout the Northeast. Southerners refer to a branch, and throughout the northern United States the term is crick, a variant of creek.
在美國東部，用來表示「急流的小河」的詞尤其多變。北部低地地區東部（包括弗吉尼亞、西弗吉尼亞、特拉華、馬裡蘭和賓夕法尼亞南部）用run ， 如在Bull run 中。 紐約州用kill （借自荷蘭語）表示這樣的河流。 整個東北部已開始用Brook 。 南方人用branch ， 美國北部則用crick （ cleek 的變體）

註釋
Terms for 「a small, fast-flowing stream」 vary throughout the eastern United States especially. Speakers in the eastern part of the Lower North (including Virginia, West Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, and southern Pennsylvania) use the word run, as in Bull Run. Speakers in New York State are liable to call such a stream a kill (a Dutch borrowing). Brook has come to be used throughout the Northeast. Southerners refer to a branch, and throughout the northern United States the term is crick, a variant of creek.
