Comments[edit]

Is this the same as Semuliki River? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.105.167.145 (talk) 20:12, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Origin of the name Semliki[edit]

Someone once told me that 'Semliki' means 'I don't know' in a local language. He thought that the river had been named by some European explorer who had asked a local what it was called, was answered 'Semliki' and just wrote that down. Does anyone know if this its true?
