Wasser
Water
Language note: Remember 'W' in German is pronounced like 'V' in English. So it sounds like 'Vasser'.
Culture note: In German restaurants, tap water isn't typically offered, so ask specifically for 'Leitungswasser' if you want it.
Context: The waiter asks what you’d like to drink with your meal.
