It's Called The Toilet.


Here in Hong Kong, if someone has to use the bathroom, they don't call it a bathroom. They call it a toilet. Over the past year, my two kids have adapted and alway say they need to use the toilet. But with the next year probably being our last year in Hong Kong, and not knowing exactly where we will be, but with the likelihood that we will be back in the United States, we are trying to train them NOT to call the bathroom a toilet, but instead refer to it as the bathroom. {My daughter currently says, "I need to go toilet".} Because, in the United States, it is considered rude to call the bathroom a toilet.
