뜻
A common question asking for the location of a toilet.
문화적 배경
Most Iranian bathrooms have a hose (shattaf) for washing with water. Using only toilet paper is considered unhygienic by many. The 'Iranian toilet' is a squat toilet. If you need a Western-style seat, ask for 'Tualet-e Farangi'. It is polite to say 'Bebakhshid' (Excuse me) before and sometimes after using the bathroom if you are in a small group. In Dari (Persian of Afghanistan), 'Tashnab' is the more common word for bathroom/toilet.
Always use 'Bebakhshid'
Iranians value politeness. Starting with 'Excuse me' makes the question much more natural.
Squat vs. Seated
Be prepared for squat toilets in public parks or older buildings. Look for 'Farangi' if you need a seat.

The 'Ve-Se' shortcut
If you forget the long word, just say 'Ve-Se' (W.C.). Most young people and city dwellers use it.

자주 묻는 질문
4 질문Yes, it is the standard polite word. You don't need to use 'Seroois-e behdashti' with friends.
Most Iranian bathrooms use water (a hose). It's a good idea to carry tissues just in case, but water is the norm.
Yes, but it's very direct. It's like saying 'Where is the toilet?' versus 'Where is the restroom?'.
You can say 'Pore' (It's full) or 'Kasi dakhele' (Someone is inside).
