A word for a 'wild stream'? [closed]

I am looking for a word describing water flowing fast and aggressively like white water. Is there a single word describing that kind of flow?

The main thing it should convey is the fast and wild flow of the water.


Solution 1:

Torrent Oxford Online Dictionary defines as:

: A strong and fast-moving stream of water or other liquid.
‘rain poured down in torrents’
‘after the rains, the stream becomes a raging
torrent’

Also consider Rapid Also Oxford Online

(usually rapids)
A fast-flowing and turbulent part of the course of a river.
those of you looking for adventure can shoot the rapids

Solution 2:

I think a sports person would call it a white-water stream/river.

That follows the name of the sports which take place on such watercourses, such as white-water rafting/canoeing etc.

Solution 3:

I think "rushing river" is an apt and common phrase.
