Etymology
In summary
Inherited from Middle High German riviere (“undeveloped area; hunting ground; river”), borrowed, probably through Middle Dutch riviere (“river; riverside used for hunting birds”), from Old French riviere (“idem”), from Latin riparia (“riverside”). Cognate with modern Dutch rivier, English river, modern French rivière. The use as a proper noun goes back to the now-archaic designation rheinisch-westfälisches Kohlenrevier.
