   以前大家说起上厕所都说去WC,但在国外没人用WC!今天我们就来学一学各种情况下用的“厕所”。


  “厕所”到底用什么?
  WC: 是water closet的缩写. 很过时的英式英语
  哪些“厕所”最常用:
  Restroom: 卫生间
  Washroom: 洗手间
  这两个词都十分常用、文明
  Bathroom: 带浴室的卫生间
  男厕所、女厕所还有无性别厕所
  男厕所、女厕所一般这么说:
  Men's room
  Ladies' room
  除了这两种,现在还有:
  Gender 1 neutral restroom: 无性别厕所
  Transgender restroom: 跨性别厕所
  Toilet太直白!
  中国的很多标识上会用toilet,但toilet其实是马桶:
  Toilet: 马桶
  Toilet paper: 厕纸
  "I need to use the toilet."太直白!
  “我要去厕所”最好这样说:
  I need to use the restroom/washroom/bathroom.
  I'm going to the restroom/washroom/bathroom.
  “大号、小号”英语里也有哦:
  No.1: 小号
  No.2: 大号
  I'm going No.1:我要去小便。
  注意:这个只有小朋友才会用。
  厕所不是WC 而是这些英语词
  “厕所”还有各种其它说法
  飞机上的厕所:
  Lavatory 2
  Lavatory是一个起源于14世纪的词,是超级古老正经的“厕所”,飞机上现在还保留了这个用法。
  英式英“厕所”还会这么说:
  The loo
  “厕所”的俚语:
  The commode
  The john
  The can
  注意:这些俚语多少有些不文雅,用起来要小心
  “电动马桶盖”英语怎么说
  现在“电动马桶改盖”已经很普及了:
  Toilet seat: 马桶坐垫
  Automatic toilet seat: 电动马桶盖
  以前在欧洲还有有一种很特别的厕所配件:
  Bidet: 用来做如厕后的清洁

n.(生理上的)性,(名词、代词等的)性
  • French differs from English in having gender for all nouns.法语不同于英语,所有的名词都有性。
  • Women are sometimes denied opportunities solely because of their gender.妇女有时仅仅因为性别而无法获得种种机会。
n.盥洗室,厕所
  • Is there any lavatory in this building?这座楼里有厕所吗?
  • The use of the lavatory has been suspended during take-off.在飞机起飞期间,盥洗室暂停使用。
