What should we start with There’s Space World, Water World, Animal World …
Before we decide, could you first tell me where the restrooms are
Role play
Pardon Restroom You want to rest But we haven’t even started yet!
Oh no, I don’t mean that. I mean … you know, a washroom or bathroom.
Role play
Yes! Sorry, maybe the people in China don’t often use the word “restroom” when they speak English.
Hmm … so you mean … the toilet
Role play
That’s right. In China, we normally say “toilet” or “washroom”. Anyway, they’re just over there.
No problem. You don’t need to rush!
Ok. I’ll be quick!

2) restroom, washroom, bathroom & toilet
以上词都可以表示“洗手间”。
