¿Se usa esta palabra para el agua? Como esto: "Tengo una jarra de agua especial. Se depura el agua del grifo." ???

[poli]

I have always used purifcar. Depurar is a new word for me.
You can definitely say el agua está purificado y se lo puede tomar sin riesco.

[laepelba]

But does my sentence work? Also, what is "riesco"?

Risk.

Depurar y purificar is the same.

Hmm... Por aquí, nadie comprendería "depurar el agua". Preferiríamos que se purifique.

It's time for cleanse my home.

In that example can be used that word as a complement.

I'm thankful for your support.

It's time to clean my home (house).
I'm thankful for your support ( or more commonly: Thank you for your support)

[Elaina]

I don't think "depurar" is a widely used word for purify.....

But if someone has heard it before, please raise your hand.

Thank you man.

Really I forget the word I'm and also I forger to place the word for.

Therefore I'm thankful with your for your support.


I believe that cleanse could to work with my example, also I can clease ( Depurar ) instead of clean the home. I mean, if you have a lot of unnecessary things kept in your home, something you might tend to make a cleansing in your own home.

Don't you?

Don't you?

Do you have evil spirits in your home, Crotalito?

Or you just saw The Exorcist?

In Spain we say "depurar" instead of "purificar" (yo purificaría un alma ).

Tenemos depuradoras para depurar el agua. Después se potabiliza añadiendo cloro y otras porquerías

También hay purificadores/purificadoras de agua, para tener agua potable.


¡Oye! ¿No estarás pensado en purificarme?

[AngelicaDeAlquezar]

Eso me recuerda el comercial de agua embotellada presuntamente de manantial, en el que salía un cura que decía "¡Si las aguas necesitan purificarse, cuántos pecados no habrán cometido!"
