English Mistakes You Must Avoid 🚫 | Potable vs Drinkable vs Portable | #Shorts #LearnEnglish

Okay, real talk. I almost drank airplane bathroom water once. 😅 contact me at [email protected] Let me save you from my mistake. There are three words that sound basically the same but will absolutely ruin your day if you mix them up. Drinkable = tastes okay. Like, you could drink it without making a face. Potable = safe to drink. Won't send you running to the bathroom every 10 minutes. Portable = easy to carry. That water bottle in your bag? Portable. So here's the viral lesson nobody taught me: On a plane? The tap water in the lavatory? 👉 Portable ✅ (you can carry the cup) 👉 Drinkable ✅ (might taste fine) 👉 Potable ❌ (big nope. huge nope.) Potable and portable are NOT the same word. One saves your stomach. One just means you can hold it. Honest tip from someone who learned the hard way: stick to bottled water at 30,000 feet. Your gut will thank you. Also, "drinkable" is about your taste buds. "Potable" is about your whole digestive system. Don't learn the difference like I did.
