long dilute course that streams a slant along a bed between banks. It starts from a 'source' and comes full circle to an ocean or lake at its 'mouth'. Along its length it might be joined by littler streams called 'tributaries'. A stream and its tributaries shape a 'waterway framework'. Land surfaces are never superbly level, and accordingly the spillover water after precipitation tends to stream descending by the most limited and steepest course in melancholies shaped by the convergence of inclines. Spillover water of adequate volume and speed join to frame a stream that, by the disintegration of basic earth and shake, turns out to be sufficiently profound to be sustained ground water or when it has as its source an extreme water store, for instance, the ganges spilling out of the Gangotri Glacier and the brahmaputra from the Manas Sarovar.
