网上支付流程英美国家的“厕所”文化
这样一则笑话：一个外宾想上厕所，便对翻译说：“I wonder if I can go somewhere?”(我可以方便一下吗?)而翻译却把somewhere误解为“某处”，因而回答道“Yes, you can go anywhere in China.”(行，中国你哪儿都可以去。)外宾不禁愕然。可见，如不了解英语中“厕所”的一些表达法是会误事的。1.Public lavatory意为“公厕”，在公共场所，厕所门上都标有Gent’s(男厕)，或Ladies’(女厕)，有时也标有Men’s, Men’s room, Gentleman’s, Women’s, Women’s room.如：Where is the Gent’s?(厕所在哪儿?)If you would like a wash, the Gentleman’s is just over there.(如果要上厕所，男厕就在那边。)2.toilet是最常用的一个词。可指“公厕”，也可指“私厕”。例如：I wonder where the toilet is.(我想知道厕所在哪儿。)3.lavatory是个客气的词，但不如toilet常用。4.bathroom是书面语。
5.loo是一个口语词，在英国用得很普通，主要指私人住宅中的厕所。如：Excu me, would
you like to tell me where the loo is?(请问，厕所在哪儿?)6.powder room是美语，女士常用。如：I would like to powder my no.就表现了美国人的幽默。
7.wash room, washing room, restroom常用于美国英语。
8.W.C.是water clot的缩写，常用于英国英语，表示“冲水厕所”，有时也可用手势表示，即拇指和食指圈成圆，其他三指向上，模仿成英文W和C的形态。不过随着时间的推移，很多西方国家根本不用WC表示厕所了。因为在英语里，WC的内涵基本可以理解为咱们中国话所说的茅坑儿，是比较粗糙的大俗话。
9.John是俚语。如：Last night I went to visit John twice.(昨晚我去了两趟厕所。)10.go and e one’s aunt是俚语，常用于英国英语，表示“上厕所”“去大便”。
