Description
According to the Encyclopaedia Britannica; Rip current, also caller riptide, is a narrow jetlike stream of water that flows sporadically seaward for several minutes in a direction normal or nearly normal to a beach.... The term is misnomer because the currents are being related in no wat to tides.
Therefore the current Hungarion translation "dagaly = tide" is incorrect.
