Hi there! European Portuguese 1. A água está fria. / A água é fria.* 2. A água não está fria. 3. A água está fria? 4. [Eu] bebo água todos os dias. 5. Ela bebe água todos os dias. 6. [Eu] estou a beber água agora. 7. [Eu] bebi água ontem. 8. [Eu] vou beber água amanhã. / (form.) [Eu] beberei água amanhã. 9. [Eu] quero beber água. 10. [Eu] não quero beber água. 11. [Eu] quero que ela beba água todos os dias. Sentence notes: 1. Just to highlight the 2 possibilities, there are 2 "to be" verbs in Portuguese and most Latin languages, one for temporary states and another for facts or permanent states. If you're talking about a particular water, it would be the first sentence, the most frequent construction is with "estar". 8. Usually the future tense is not used, I wrote first the way speakers would convey the same meaning, and with a formal annotation I wrote the literal future tense. 4,6,7,8,9,10,11 - the subject is not mandatory. If it's a dialogue it would be supressed. If it's writing sentences with no context, like example sentences, usually we leave the subject. The sentence is correct with or without one.
