As such, it is known by various names in the region: Assamese: ব্ৰহ্মপুত্ৰ নদ (' নদ' nôd, masculine form of' নদী' nôdi "river") Brôhmôputrô (bɹɔɦmɔputɹɔ); Sanskrit: ब्रह्मपुत्र, IAST: Brahmaputra; Tibetan: ཡར ་ ཀླུངས ་ གཙང ་ པོ ་, Wylie: yar klung gtsang po Yarlung Tsangpo; simplified Chinese: 布 拉 马 普 特 拉 河; traditional Chinese: 布 拉 馬 普 特 拉 河; pinyin: Bùlāmǎpǔtèlā Hé .

It is the ninth largest river in the world by discharge, and the 15th longest . </P> <P> With its origin in the Manasarovar Lake, located on the northern side of the Himalayas in Burang County of Tibet as the Yarlung Tsangpo River, it flows across southern Tibet to break through the Himalayas in great gorges (including the Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon) and into Arunachal Pradesh (India). It flows southwest through the Assam Valley as Brahmaputra and south through Bangladesh as the Jamuna (not to be mistaken with Yamuna of India). In the vast Ganges Delta, it merges with the Padma, the popular name of the river Ganges in Bangladesh, and finally the Meghna and from here it is known as Meghna before emptying into the Bay of Bengal . </P>
