agua

water

noun AH-gwah Very Common

Usage Note

agua is feminine but takes el and un in the singular because it begins with a stressed a- sound: el agua fría, yet the plural reverts to las aguas. Adjectives still agree as feminine.

Examples

"¿Me puede traer un vaso de agua?"

Natural Translation

Can you bring me a glass of water?

Literal Translation

To-me can bring a glass of water?
