Standard idioms for inland shipping
The standard phrases for inland navigation ( English Standard Inland Navigation Communication Phrases ) (SINCP) are standardized phrases for the inland waterways in the languages French , Dutch , English and German .
The idioms were collected under the working title "Riverspeak" by members of the Education in Inland Navigation (EDINNA) network in order to standardize the agreements between inland navigation vessels. The collection was then submitted to the Police Committee of the Central Commission for Navigation on the Rhine (CCNR) for examination. With the changes requested by the police committee, this became the standard Inland Navigation Communication Phrases. The CCNR recommends its use in inland waterway radio .
