bathroom

[C] Countable
pl: bathrooms

The term carries a strong association with privacy and personal hygiene. In North American English, it serves as a polite euphemism for a restroom or toilet, often used in social settings to avoid the bluntness of the word toilet. In residential contexts, it describes a specific architectural space. Depending on the home's layout, it may be a full bathroom with a tub or a half-bathroom containing only a toilet and sink, though the word is used broadly for any such facility.

Used to count individual rooms in a house, such as a three-bathroom home.
