As an Australian I always find it funny going places and having to remember which dance-around word everyone uses for "toilet". Washroom, restroom, bathroom, there's so many!

[bcoates]

'Toilet' itself is a euphemism, an archaic term for dressing/washing room and/or the act of washing up

[umanwizard]

“Toilette” is still used that way in normal everyday French. “Je fais ma toilette” - I’m washing up/getting ready/getting dressed/doing my morning hygiene routine/etc.

It was pretty surprising to be reading some old books on Project Gutenberg and seeing the word "toilet" being used meaning "outfit" or "wardrobe".

Let's call it the poop room

[ajdude]

Don't forget water closet!

Not to be confused with Tungsten Carbide, a ceramic used for abrasives and ballpoint pen tips.

Toilet, bog or lav in the UK are some options.

The easy to remember terms and will work nearly anywhere without giving offence are: "loo" in a residential property or "gents/ladies" for a non-residential property.

and also the lavatory

other notables include the loo, the can, the john, and of course the dunny

The pisser

Toilet is the object, not the room it's in

[KayEss]

Only in some parts of the world. In many it's the room and the object

And the last 2-bed apartment I rented was a scam, the rooms didn't even come with beds.

Meaning 1a is the object, 1b is the room. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/toilet
