Looking into it a bit more, the French is also from the latin source (aqua) - https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/eau
Germanic - wasser/water/voda/woda
French - eau
Italian/Spanish - aqua/agua
Greek - nero (νερό)
Danish - vand
Romanian - apă
Latvian - udens
Turkish - su
Welsh - dwrIt definitely takes time to adjust for things. This example I find funny because to me the mac method makes sense. Cmd + Up/Down to go up or down file hierarchies, and Cmd + Down will also open files. For Windows it is Alt + Up to go up, but Enter to go down or open file. I find the symmetry of the mac binding more simple, but that doesn't mean that I don't adjust over time when on Windows.
Another bonus RE keybindings is that there are a number of system shortcuts that you can very easily change to your liking through System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts, without any additional software.

Looks like it was removed from Windows preview due to feedback, they may be reworking it in the background.
There are many similar examples with this same pattern.
