Which European language has this expression?
- amenhotep 3y agoDanish, Dutch: toilet, Estonian: tualett, Finnish: toiletti, French: toilette, German: Toilette, Greek: τουαλέτα, Hungarian: toalett, Italian: toilette, Latvian: tualete, Lithuanian: tualetas, Maltese: toilet, Norwegian: toalett, Polish: toaleta, Portuguese: tolaete, Romanian: toaletă, Russian and basically every other Slavic language: туалет, Swedish: toalett, Turkish: tuvalet, Welsh: toiled assuming Wiktionary can be trusted on all of these Honourable mention to the incomparable Scots language for "cludgie"!
- BrandoElFollito 3y ago> Also, much of the European world refers to a "powder room" as a toilet OK, now I get it that I misunderstood the comment! I thought that "powder room" was supposed to be a word in Europe. Toilet and its variants - of course. Thanks! BTW for French it will be the plural "toilettes", the singular form means "the action of washing yourself"
