	:::Well, actually, "uisce/uisge" just means "water." The name comes from "uisge/uisce beatha" = "water of life" but they dropped the "life" part in English usage. Also, medieval Latinists gave the name "aqua vitae" to just about any distilled concentrated ethanol product. It doesn't really rain Johnny Walker or Jameson's on Whiskey.[[User:Taibhse\|Taibhse]] ([[User talk:Taibhse\|talk]]) 10:57, 26 May 2015 (UTC)		:::Well, actually, "uisce/uisge" just means "water."

		+	: I would like to say the "-k-" diminutive cannot be feminine itself: it's the word that ends with "-a" is gender neutral for people and "feminine" for things.bAlso... Saying "Oboronka" instead of "Oborona" even creates a new noun.[[Special:Contributions/162.158.183.145\|162.158.183.145]] 20:26, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
		+	* Polish people tried to claim vodka as own nation's invention, with a claim based on that "k" letter. Their logic was: Russian "voda" is Polish "vodka" minus "k" letter. I know some words indeed were derived that way ("flyaga" for flask was derived from "flazhka"), but "voda" is based on ancient "va".[[Special:Contributions/162.158.183.145\|162.158.183.145]]

	Weirdly enough, 80 proof vodka and the human body are both about 60% water. If you replaced the remaining 30-odd percent of volume in your body with pure alcohol, you could sustain yourself purely on vodka! Or become vodka.
