ICE WATER is not only cold but apparently also quite blue. Of course, ICE WATER is AGUA FRIA and also COLD WATER is AGUA FRIA. But then, when do we say COLD WATER and when do we say ICE WATER? In most cases it is OK to use the term COLD WATER; but if we mean water that contains ice cubes, we should say ICE WATER and not COLD WATER.

So many  HASHTAGS! They could easily take over the world! Well, these days the answer is HASHTAG,  a term made popular by Twitter. However, that is not the only name it has. Before HASHTAG became universal, other names were more common for this symbol such as POUND SIGN, NUMBER SIGN, and even HASH CHARACTER can be used.
