關於Paddington的意思和用法的提問

A: Now i see the message and meaning clearly. Your answer really helped me out. Thank you :)

A: It’s not common to use the word ‘facilities’ to refer to toilets in everyday speech. However, most people would probably understand you if you used it.

It’s better to use ‘toilets’ or ‘loo’ if you want to sound more natural. ‘Bathroom’ is used more in the US, but people in the UK sometimes call it that too.

Hope that helps :)
