<< review queue entry 62282 - submitted by 'vermillon' >> In the last edit, Yves replied: "not a noun, doesn't need caps, and certainly doesn't mean bathroom." But there are plenty of examples where it is clearly used as a noun, including many where I can't quite think what else it could mean, other than "bathroom". 你当然可以用减少卧室面积的代价来扩建卫浴, 但是没有其它办法么? https://baike.baidu.com/item/%E5%8D%AB%E6%B5%B4 "不带通风窗的卫浴必须安装排风扇；" "那么，如何装修卫浴？" (etc, too many occurrences of the word as a noun in the article) ---------------------------------------- Editor: True.

Similarly, "vanity cabinet" or "vanity unit" is now usually just "a vanity".
