For example, I go to a store and want to buy a bottle of water.
Then I need a water which is not cold.
In this case, Can I say like that "Do you have a room temperture's water?"?
Is it natural??


Could you tell me, please?

Um, no, that is not very natural.

You should say either "Do you have a bottle of water at room temperature?" or "Do you have a bottle of water that isn't cold?" I think the second might be a little more natural.

What sounds natural is hot water or cold water, but you want water at room temperature.

To me, it seems a bit more natural to say: "Do you have bottled water that's not refrigerated?".
