Traditional Arabic: Ma'a ماء

All Arabs can understand this one, and there are more similar words for that, which differs according to the region/country & accents.

for instance:

In Kuwait,Iraq & some other countries in gulf region they say "maay/maai" ماي - pronounced like "My" in english.

In Bahrain,Saudi Arabia,UAE,Qatar they say "Moya" مويا

In Egypt they say "Mayya" ميه

In Lebanon,Syria,Jordan they say "mai" ْمَي - don't stress on the 'a' - (different pronounciation that maai 'my')

Persian: aap آب (rhymes with ah)

--

Turkish: Su (pronounced like soo - or soup, but without the p ofcourse)

--

French: Eau

--

Ok now those were what i am sure of. Now the following translation i am not so sure of:

Italian: Acqua

Spanish: Agua

German: Wasser

Portuguese: Água

Dutch: Water

Russian: вода

I need to fix the person that said that water = mule in korean..
Mule is pronounced something like myoo-ul or something.
but in korean its mool (like a cow's sound + l)
It's written.물 or for chinese characters/hanja= 水
