A. 生活化、口語化說法

• "I really need to use the bathroom, but there's a long line."
  「我真的需要上廁所，但是排隊很長。」

• "I've got an upset stomach and the bathroom line is huge."
  「我的腸胃不舒服，然後，廁所排很多人。」

• "I'm having stomach issues and can't wait much longer, but the restroom has a queue."
  「我的胃有問題(肚子不舒服)，等不了太久了，但是洗手間要排隊。」

• "My stomach is killing me, but there's a line for the toilet."
  「我的肚子痛得要命，但廁所有(要)排隊。」

B. 客氣、有禮貌的說法

• "Excuse me, I'm not feeling well and need to use the restroom urgently. Is there another facility nearby?"
  「不好意思，我感覺不太舒服，需要緊急使用洗手間。附近有其他洗手間嗎？」

• "I'm sorry to ask, but I have a medical emergency. Could I possibly use the restroom ahead of others?"
  「很抱歉詢問，但我有緊急醫療需求。我可以先使用洗手間嗎？」

• "I'm experiencing some digestive discomfort and the wait for the facilities seems quite long."
  「我正在經歷一些消化不適，而等待洗手間設施的時間似乎很長。」

C. 中文學習者容易犯的錯誤

❌ "I want to have diarrhea but the toilet line is long."
直接翻譯「我想拉肚子」是不正確的。英文中沒有人會說他們「想要」腹瀉。

✅ "I'm having stomach issues and the bathroom line is long."
正確的表達是描述你正在經歷腸胃問題。

❌ "The WC has many people waiting."
雖然「WC」在某些國家使用，但在美式英語中不常見。

✅ "There's a long line for the restroom/bathroom."
在美式英語中，使用「restroom」或「bathroom」更為常見。
