A bathroom is a room that may have different functions depending on the cultural context it is used in.
- In its literal sense it means "a room with a bath", but as bathtubs have partly made way for showers and steam showers, the more general sense of "a room where one bathes" makes more sense. There can be just a shower or just a bathtub or both, sometimes combined and sometimes separate (in which case the bathtub may have a second shower). Usually, it also contains a handbasin or sink and often also a toilet.
- In the United States, "bathroom" commonly means "a room containing a toilet" (in other countries this is usually called "toilet" or alternatively "water closet" (or "WC"), or "lavatory"). For this interpretation of the word see bathroom (American). In America they are categorized as full bathroom, containing a bathtub, a shower, a toilet, and a sink; half (1/2) bath containing a toilet and a handbasin (lavatory); and 3/4 bath containing a toilet, a handbasin (lavatory) and a shower.
