What is wrong with this sentence I drank two waters.?

The sentence "I drank two waters" is grammatically incorrect.

Here's why:

* "Water" is an uncountable noun. This means it doesn't have a plural form like "waters."

* We use "glass(es) of water" or "bottle(s) of water" to quantify water.

Here are some corrected versions of the sentence:

* I drank two glasses of water.

* I drank two bottles of water.

* I drank two cups of water.
