المعنى
Asking for the location of the restroom.
خلفية ثقافية
Public toilets often have an attendant who expects a small fee. They usually provide toilet paper after payment. The word 'вбиральня' is much more common here and is used in signage more frequently than in the East. Restrooms in malls and gas stations (like OKKO or WOG) are usually very modern and free. In many Soviet-era apartments, the toilet is in a separate tiny room from the sink and bathtub.
Drop the verb
In casual speech, just say 'Де туалет?'. It's faster and very natural.
Watch the signs
Remember: Ч is for Men (Choloviky), Ж is for Women (Zhinky).
