Hi, it's Rob here from Woodward English.
Today, we're going to look at vocabulary associated with the bathroom.
The bathroom is usually used for two different things.
One, is where you clean yourselves in a shower
or in a bathtub.
And the other use for a bathroom is sometimes to go to the toilet.
Now this one is a little different because it's in its own little area but you can see
we have the toilet with the toilet seat down, you have a roll of toilet paper
and also in the corner you have a toilet brush for cleaning.
But most of the time you come to the bathroom to use a shower.
Now, let's have a look.
In the shower, you enter the shower,
and you have this showerhead and then you have this dial or knob or whatever
for making it hot or cold.
Now this shower is a little different because it has two showerheads.
One from above and one that changes its angle.
And when you're in the shower, sometimes
you need to use shampoo to wash your hair and some people use conditioner
to make your hair softer... I think... I don't know, I don't use it myself.
We also have soap
which is used for cleaning and to get rid of all of the dirt
and to make you smell nice.
Some people, when they don't want to get their hair wet,
they sometimes use one of these... a shower cap which you put on over your hair
so it doesn't get wet.
But sometimes some people don't have a shower
they have a bathtub.
In the bathtub, you fill it up with water
and you sit in there and relax with bubbles and everything like that.
Over here, we have a towel rail.
Sometimes they're heated, sometimes they're not
and this is where you hang the towels this is a towel rail.
Over here, we have the sink.
This one is also special because there are two sinks here.
Here, we have... this has two different names.
Sometimes it's called a tap or taps,
or sometimes it's called a faucet... it depends on the country.
And you turn it and it has either hot water or cold water.
Of course you have some soap to wash your hands.
Also, we have these things here. You have toothpaste and a toothbrush
for brushing your teeth.
Some people, they have one of these...
it's an electric toothbrush (bzzzzzz) I'm not going to use it because it's not mine... yuck!
You can see in here this has a type of plug so you push it down and the water fills up
and you open it up and the water goes down but this is a more modern plug because
sometimes you have one... you just put these in there... there's a hole and you put the plug in,
you put the plug in there so the water doesn't go down the drain.
Something else in the bathroom, sometimes the men they have these here this is
called a shaver... to make sure... to get all the hairs off your face,
usually the men, sometimes the women, it depends...
And after that, you have some aftershave.
You put it on like this and it like stings a little sometimes
After your shower, sometimes
after you've washed your hair and you've dried your hair with a towel,
some people use one of these this is called a hair dryer.
You plug it in and now a lot of
hot air comes out it helps you dry your hair quickly.
Another thing that we have in the bathroom is this here...
a mirror ... looks good, beautiful, beautiful (sarcasm)
Okay, so this is just general vocabulary about the bathroom.
I hope it helped you.
Have an awesome day!
