Why does it feel like drinking water helps work down gas?

Applefan1
It seems like if I ever have gas that might be a little trapped drinking water helps work it down so I am able to fart it out? Why is this? I am just curious as to what the water does to help.

Please be nice this is an honest question and I would like helpful answers. I am not trying to be gross.

Thank you.
