Etymology
The verb *to water* is a 14th‑century formation from the noun *water* (Old English wæter, from Proto‑Germanic *watōr, ultimately PIE *wódr̥* “water”). It uses the English agentive suffix –er to mean “to give water to” a plant or animal. The verb has no independent Latin or Greek root; it is derived directly from the Germanic word for water.
