@Nyttend and BD2412: Is there really a version of English in which "restroom" is used for a domestic facility? There's no mention in Toilet (room), where a lot of other names are discussed. None of the three sources suggests this. If there is no reliable source, then we should revert to the redirect to Public toilet as at yesterday. (OED says: "Originally: a room (usually in a public building or workplace) set aside for rest and relaxation (now rare). In later use (U.S.): a lavatory in a public building or workplace.", so doesn't support this usage). PamD17:50, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It is not too difficult to find references to the restroom in the home. See, e.g., Rosana Pinheiro-Machado, Counterfeit Itineraries in the Global South (2017), p. 82: "Maria said most of her friends' bodies were already conditioned to use the restroom only at home at night, but one still needed to avoid the unexpected". bd2412T17:55, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
