brine
A highly concentrated saltwater solution. It is used in therapeutic baths (brine baths), for preserving food, or in winter as a de-icing agent against ice.
Ein Bad in der warmen Sole soll bei Hautproblemen helfen.
A bath in warm brine is supposed to help with skin problems.
'Die Sole' (brine) is not the English word 'sole'. The German word means saltwater. The English word 'sole' can mean 'die Sohle' (of a shoe) or 'die Seezunge' (a fish).
Im Winter wird auf den Straßen oft Sole versprüht.
In winter, brine is often sprayed on the roads.
The word 'Sole' (brine) is closely related to 'Salz' (salt). It comes from the Latin word 'sal' for salt and refers to a particularly salty water solution.
In der Fabrik wird die Sole zur Herstellung von Salz verwendet.
In the factory, the brine is used to produce salt.
'Sole' (brine) is often used in the context of wellness and health. Typical combinations are 'Solebad' (brine bath), 'Sole-Therme' (brine thermal spa), or the verbs 'in Sole baden' (to bathe in brine) and 'Sole inhalieren' (to inhale brine).
Das Inhalieren von Sole kann bei Atemwegserkrankungen helfen.
Inhaling brine can help with respiratory illnesses.

Both words can refer to a salty liquid used to preserve food. „Lake“ is the usual term and may also contain spices, while „Sole“ emphasizes the high salt concentration and is also used outside this context. For pickled foods, „Lake“ is usually the appropriate word.

Für die Gurken verwendete sie eine würzige Lake.
