What Do Say When You Want To Buy This? Guess You Are Wrong! by Nobody: 3:52pm On Oct 10, 2017
Each time people came to my mum's shop to buy SACHET WATER (pure water), I always here them say "Give me pure water".
When given COLD one but they don't want COLD pure water, they object by saying "No, not COLD WATER... give me HOT ONE".
The water is not hot but why do they say hot water?.



Having seen the four walls of High School and knowing that for water to be hot it must be above the normal room temperature, I always try to avoid this error by saying "I want sachet water that is not cold" but saying this is always cumbersome .

Over to you nairalanders, what do you say when you want to buy SACHET WATER THAT IS NOT COLD? or is there a shorter way to say "I want sachet(pure) water that is not cold"?

I say ordinary.
The opposite of cold is hot, so when something is not cold, it is hot

Gimme pure water, not cold .
Gimme pure water wae no cold .
Gimme ordinary pure water.

Telling us to say sachet water is like telling us to say PHCN in preference to NEPA , not going to happen ...just like peak its in us .
