You’re in the wind, I’m in the water

You’d think that the word designing the biggest part of our planet would have a name that wouldn’t change at all, but you would be wrong! The term “water” originated in Old english as “waeter”, but had source from multiple languages, such as Old saxon “watar”, Old frisian “wetir”, Dutch “water”, Old High German “wazzar”, German “wasser”, Old Norse “vatn” and Gothic ”water”. The word as we know ot today has a lot of origins, but they all sound and look similar, which I believed influenced the final decision for “water”.
