- A hydronym; particularly:
- A river in the province of Noord-Brabant, the Netherlands; it flows into the Hollands Diep and is the continuation of the Bergsche Maas.
Usage notes
edit- The placenames Amersfoort, Amerongen and others in the province of Utrecht do not refer to the Brabantian river, but are probably derived from a by-form Amer of the hydronym Eem which does not survive in contemporary Dutch.
