In Australia “Toilet” means the room as well and the toilet and bathroom are two separate rooms. So, in English “toilet” can also mean the room.

カレッジのアパート. とてもちいさい. I could see in every room from the couch. でも、とてもべんりですよ。

Finally got to listen to the lesson - it answered my question. I’ll be quiet now.

A friend of mine used to leave in a 7,5 square meter apartment on the 8th (and last) floor of a 19th century building in a very nice neighbourhood of Paris. トイレ, as it was, was not in the apartment, but at the end of the 8th floor corridor (however, she was the only one living there).
The apartment was right under the roof, and so had a slanted ceiling…. in her “bedroom”, at the highest point, the ceiling was 1,20 m above the floor… which means she couldn’t stand up in her own room !

There are a lot of rooms like that in old buildings, and it’s quite common for students to get a first apartment just like the one this friend used to live in…

Minna-san!

I am also experiencing problems with the Kanji close-up and the Video vocab. Hopefully, (as always! I have blind faith in the staff at Japanesepod101), it will be solved soon!

Arigatou gozaimasu!

The URL to the video vocab file in the premium feed still has problems.
