untreated water
Si se usa "corriente" aquí para describir la fluidez del corriente, entonces mis colegas tienen razon. Pero por si acaso esta siendo utilizado en el sentido "normal, cotidiano" yo diria que simplamente poniendo "untreated sea or river water" sería mejor. "Untreated" implica que és tal como viene del fuente (sea mar o rio).
Suerte,
Berni

: No estoy segura de que se pueda calificar como "untreated". Lo que sale del grifo es "agua corriente" (aparece frecuentemente en anuncios de pisos) y se puede beber, por que ha sido tratada para su consumo. Te otorgo el beneficio de la duda...

No digo "tap water" digo agua normal del mar o el rio. "corriente" en el sentido normal, que pones un cubo en el rio y saques agua normal. Aigua Corriente en casa is "tap water"
