Burn (Scotland) : ウィキペディア英語版
Burn (landform)

A burn is a watercourse (in size from a large stream to a small river).
==Etymology==
The term ''burn'' is used in Scotland and England (especially North East England) and some parts of Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.
The cognate of ''burn'' in standard English is "bourn", "bourne", "borne", "born", which is retained in placenames like ''Bournemouth'', ''King's Somborne'', ''Holborn'', ''Melbourne''. A cognate in German is ''Born''〔http://www.dwds.de/?kompakt=1&qu=Born〕 (contemp. ''Brunnen''), meaning "well", "spring" or "source", which is retained in placenames like ''Paderborn'' in Germany. Both the English and German words derive from the Saxon "brunna".〔http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=bourn〕
Scots Gaelic has the word ''bùrn'', also cognate, but which means "fresh water"; the actual Gaelic for a "burn" is ''allt'' (sometimes anglicised as "ault" or "auld" in placenames.)
