K'o-tzu-le Su

[edit]
Map including K'o-tzu-le Ho (DMA, 1984)

Shabad gives the form 'K'o-tzu-le Su' in the quoted sentence in his earlier version of China's Changing Map [1]. In the later edition, he changes it to 'K'o-tzu-le-su'. In my mind, the earlier form is more sensitive to the meaning behind the term (name of a river, where Su means river) and is not an error. However, I can't find another example of 'K'o-tzu-le Su' right now. It may appear in other literature or maps. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 14:50, 4 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

The Hanyu Pinyin derived parallel for the Wade-Giles derived form 'K'o-tzu-le Su' would be 'Kezile Su'. "The facies geometry is controlled by the interference between major southward-flowing transverse rivers and a major eastward-flowing axial river: the Kezile Su."
