Xola, I've just sent you a couple of instant messages regarding your note, so I'll won't bore you unecessarily by repeating myself here!
Özden Arıkan Dec 17, 2004:
Dear Sophie, "water course" might be the most suitable wording for your translation at hand, but a glossary entry is something that stands and may be used for many other translations. I'd appreciate it if you could correct. Thanks.
Serkan Doğan Dec 17, 2004:

3 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks for the links. I'm not sure if river/ stream bed is applicable here, but "water course" was suggested by another translator friend. "Flood plain" is one term that also seems to crop up everywhere."
