A couple from TikTok, Shelby and Dylan, shared a video in 2020, where they were talking about the difference between Americans and Canadians.
“What in the world is a washroom?” Dylan asked. “And what are they washing in there? Oh, it’s a restroom. The only thing I wash in there is my hands,” he then continued.
Then Shelby asked, “Do you rest in a restroom?”
“That’s a good point. They both don’t make much sense,” Dylan said.
As the Mirriam Webster’s Dictionary explained, “water closet” is a noun which describes, “a compartment or room with a toilet” or “a toilet bowl and its accessories.”
In short, it means “WC.”
In Reddit, a user asked to other users, “Why is a public WC called bathroom if there is [no] bath?”
A Redditor commented under, “Americans might similarly ask: ‘Why is it called a WC (water closet) if it isn’t even a closet?”
“In Russian it’s ‘a room without windows’ even if there actually is a window,” then a different Redditor shared, “In Esperanto, it’s necesejo, or ‘necessary place’”

What a beautiful story of healing and rediscovery! It’s incredibly touching how Drake went out of his way to connect with the part of you he remembered from happier times, even taking on all those extra activities just to make it happen.

Sometimes we forget how much our own journeys impact the people we love most, even when we think we’re hiding our struggles. But stories like this remind us how opening up and sharing both the highs and lows can bring a family closer, even after heartache. Your son’s actions showed such maturity and empathy, and it’s heartwarming to see the two of you finding each other again.
