Answer 1

The Thames (pronounced /tɛmz/) is a river flowing through southern England, in its lower reaches flowing through London into the sea. It is one of the major waterways in England. Because the Thames is so well known, it is usually unnecessary to call it the River Thames. Indeed, Londoners often refer to it as 'the river', in expressions such as 'south of the river'. It is never correct to call it the Thames River.
