Hello,

I just want to make sure I understand the following sentences correctly.

There's some water in the bottle. (the point is that I can find some amount of water in the bottle)
There's water in the bottle. (what I can find in the bottle is water and not for example wine)
It's water in the bottle. (the thing that is in the bottle is water - as an answer to my previous question: What's that in the bottle?)

Am I right?

Thanks

Thanks.
