Shouldn't that be Tuvan instead of Russian?

Quite possibly. What do the dictionaries say? --Latebird (talk) 14:29, 7 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

I don't have any Tuvan dictionary. I have a book called "Journey to Tuva", but at the time it was written the river was probably still completely in Mongolia. Yaan (talk) 14:41, 7 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Tes-Xem appears only on the map and on one page, where it is mentioned as one of Tuva's kozuuns (khoshuus?). So I guess this doesn't really help. Yaan (talk) 09:40, 8 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Actually, I think all we need to determine is that "khem" is not a Russian word for "river". After that, there are few useful alternatives left. --Latebird (talk) 10:02, 8 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

We could also ask the Tuva work group about it. Too bad Bogomolov seems to be offline. Yaan (talk) 10:09, 8 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

It is Tuvan. The Russians probably use that name too though. I've not seen any other name for it. --Stacey Doljack Borsody (talk) 14:51, 8 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thanks, fixed it. --Latebird (talk) 18:21, 8 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
