A is any river; the specifically large one that flows into the sea is a fluvo in careful usage, though most speakers ignore the distinction and use throughout. Riverbordo is the bank, enfluejo the mouth. The useful preposition here is , across, and it follows the general rule for movement: static position leaves the noun alone, while crossing to the other side takes the accusative. Hence is over on the far bank, is the act of getting there.
