DONGA

This article appears in Volume V08, Page 414 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: DIO-DRO
DONGA , a
Bantu
  word for a
ravine
 , narrow watercourse or
gully
  formed by the action of
water
 . Adopted by the
European
  residents of
South
  Africa from the Kaffirs, the use of the word has been extended by
English
  writers to ravines or watercourses of the nature indicated in various other parts of the
world
 . It is almost equivalent to the Arabic khor, which, however, also means the dry bed of a stream, or a stream flowing through a
ravine
 . The
Indian
  word
nullah
  (properly a watercourse) has also the same significance. The three words are often used interchange-ably by
English
  writers.
