Why wouldn't you call a 水温計 a 水温計?I see. So if for example i don't know a word for 水温計, can i still call it a 温度計?
Because i didn't know such specific word even exists. Now suppose there is a special word for a thermometer for measuring the temperature of sake, like, let's say 酒温計(しゅおんけい). I may call it a 日本酒の温度計 as Mike suggested above and still be understood.Why wouldn't you call a 水温計 a 水温計?
