Yes, but it might be slightly different because the salt upsets the water's surface tension.
The ocean has always been salty and it is thought that life evolved in the oceans. This means that salt water fish have mechanisms for dealing with the salt in their environment. However, land animals have adapted to live away from the sea and have developed a waterproof covering (skin) to protect us from drying out. (They sort of carry a bit of the ocean with them). This means that if you were to dip your injury into SEA WATER (which is salty) you would NOT find this painful. The water must be made MORE SALTY than sea water before it would hurt. Water this salty would also hurt most fish.
92% of the water is salty.
Estuarine biota can include a wide range of life forms such as fish, crabs, oysters, clams, shrimp, and various forms of algae and plankton. These organisms are adapted to the brackish water conditions found in estuaries, which are areas where freshwater rivers meet salty ocean water.

A salty or slightly salty mixture of water. A mixture of fresh and sea water, such as that found in estuaries.
Slightly salty.
Many ancient bacteria live in extremely hot or salty water. True bacteria describes one-celled organisms that have no separate nucleus.

It's the environment they've adapted to live in so, yes.
Yes, but it might be slightly different because the salt upsets the water's surface tension.

The official definition of the word brackish is "(of water) slightly salty, as is the mixture of river water and seawater in estuaries."
Mangroves are typically found in salty or brackish water, as they are adapted to tolerate high salinity levels. While some species of mangroves can survive in slightly lower salinity levels, they are not well-suited for purely freshwater environments.
Brackish means slightly salty. Desalination is the process of removing the salt.
