I wanted to try and folksy this up a bit, make it sound like one of Z's proverbs:

En lavejo kiam, telefonu neniam.

sudanglo:Erinja, if Americans use 'bathroom' when they mean toilet, then what word do they use for banĉambro?

Around here (Maine), bathroom has the same meaning as in England (where I'm from): either the room where the toilet lives, or the whole banĉambro. Restroom is only used when referring to a public convenience but even that depends on who is talking. However, Loo, Karzi, Bog and other such colloquialisms are not well understood in America
