Why do we use te basta instead of a normal verb form where "you" is the subject?
Why is the word con used here? The English translation doesn't say "with".
In Spanish, the expression bastar con is commonly used to say that a specific thing is sufficient to fulfill a need. The literal structure of the Spanish sentence is "Is it enough for you with a glass of water?"
