When a person, say a guest, comes into a house, the host might think "I will feed my guests." But what if the guests need water, would the host say "I will water my guests" -- Because that sounds a bit odd (since water is generally used for plants). Which leads me to my question, is there a word for giving water to a person?

1Even more confusing: if when you give your guests food, you feed them, what happens when you give them wood?– Sven YargsMar 17, 2017 at 7:02
