물 주세요.

Speech Level

The '-세요' ending makes this a polite command or request, perfectly appropriate for asking service staff for items.

How it works

A noun followed by a request verb.

• 물: Water.
• 주세요: Please give (me).

Omitted Particles

The object particle '을' is omitted after '물'. In textbook Korean, this would be '물을 주세요', but dropping the particle sounds much more natural and concise in everyday speech.

Notes

A simple, direct, and polite request for water at a restaurant or cafe.
