Definition of mineral water
mineral waternoun
nước khoáng
/ˈmɪn(ə)rəl ˌwɔːtə/
The term "mineral water" has roots in the Latin word "mineralis," meaning "of a mine." Early civilizations recognized that water from certain springs contained dissolved minerals, giving it distinct properties. These springs were often associated with mines, leading to the association of "mineral" with the water. The term "mineral water" became popular in the 17th century as scientific understanding of these dissolved minerals grew. People began to believe these minerals had medicinal properties, further solidifying the connection between the water and its mineral content.
