What a fascinating question!
The following are the top 10 deepest bodies of water in the world in order from greatest to least:
Pacific Ocean (35,827 ft) (10,924 meters)
Atlantic Ocean (30,246 ft) (9,219 meters)
Indian Ocean (24,460 ft) (7,455 meters)

Additionally, the world is 70.9% water.
Of that water, 97% is saltwater.
It is obviously entirely impossible to know the exact depths of these water-bodies at this moment in time but this information is as of 20011, so it is pretty current. That said, the official depths for the Southern Ocean are still not available at this time.
The deepest part of a river or waterway is typically called the channel or thalweg. This is where the water flow is the strongest and deepest due to the force of the current eroding the riverbed over time. The depth of the channel can vary depending on the water flow, sedimentation, and geographical features of the area.
I asked my father who has majored in geology and he says it is called a talwedge. I dont guarantee anything but I think he is right
And i think you just wrote down the pronunciation.
The word is THALWEG. See:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thalweg
There is no single word for the deepest part of a body of water. In the ocean, however, this area is believed to be the Mariana Trench.
