freshwater
/'freʃ,wɔ:tə/
freshwater means water that is not salty—the kind associated with rivers, lakes, streams, and ponds rather than seas and oceans. But this word does more than name a type of water: it often appears right before another noun, as in phrases like freshwater fish, freshwater ecosystems, or freshwater management. In this lesson, you’ll see how freshwater contrasts with saltwater, why fresh water may also be written as two words, and how it differs from related terms like potable water and brine. Watch the full lesson to learn how to use freshwater naturally and accurately.
