Stagnant
Line-break:OnOff
Adjective
(of a body of water or the atmosphere of a confined space ) having no current or flow and often having an unpleasant smell as a consequence:
A stagnant ditch
This is the definition of stagnant.
River is known to be flowing water where as the explanation given relates to pond because ponds are famous for its stagnant water.
The explanation is not clear and doesn't make much sense.
