water spill
Knocked over glass
A water spill is an accidental release of water onto a surface where it doesn't belong—a knocked-over glass on a table, a puddle spreading across a floor.
The term appears in safety contexts where even ordinary water creates slip hazards: Please clean up any water spills immediately.
In industrial settings, water spill may refer to larger uncontrolled discharges.
