Thread: прибрежный и наземный

"Прибрежный" can refer to objects near a shore either on land or on/in water. It might be not clear due to a dropped vowel and consonant alternation, but it means "при береге". "Наземный" means "on land" (на земле) regardless of a distance from a shore.

Thank you; I will change the vocabulary that goes with the exercise in this sense.
