Indonesian term

dikeringkan

Indonesian to English Tech/Engineering Mining & Minerals / Gems
"Daerah telitian dikeringkan oleh sungai Telisa"
I would translate as the research area is dried by the Telisa River. But is that possible. It is part of a mining exploration report.

Indonesian Yes it is indonesian. The word dikeringkan means dikeringkan indeed, but it doesn't seem to fit the logic, the river dried the research area? if the river's flow is passing trough the research area, and the river's flow is redirected then i think it is possible/logical.
