How do the material that makes water salty enter into the waterway?

The material that makes water salty is, you guessed it, salt! When various minerals are chemically weathered, they release there various constituents, and these then travel, dissolved in water, into the ocean. The water in the ocean then evaporates, rains, and flows back into the ocean loaded with more salt. The effect of this is to increase the concentration of salt in the ocean such that it seems "salty" to us.
