Usage notes

 * As with the names of rivers and lakes, the names of mountains are typically formed by adding the generic word before or after the unique term. In the case of mountains, when the word precedes the unique term, is used:, , ; when the word follows the unique term, mountain is used: , , . Generally speaking, such names will be adjectives or attributive nouns, but many foreign placenames formed with adjectives—as China's —are translated as though they were proper names:  instead of Hua Mountain or Flourishing Mountain. Mountain chains are never named with , only with , a translated term, or a pluralized name.
