H2O.
Agua.
Voda.*
Water.
Whatever you call it, I drink a lot of it.
*During my first trip to Bosnia (of three), my traveling companions and I were going to a park just outside of Sarajevo and part of the trip involved a ride in a horse train carriage. At one point along the way, the man driving the carriage pulled over, turned back to us, and just kept saying "voda" over and over again. He then got out of the carriage, went down to a little stream and filled a bucket up with water. He brought the bucket back for the horse to have a drink, turned to us and said, "voda!" In response, we put our hands up and exclaimed, "water!" That is when I learned how to say water in Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian and that man learned how to say water in English.
