上厕所手纸到底要折几折(厕所没纸尽量别说)

上厕所手纸到底要折几折

网上之前有这样一个梗:

有位刚出国的留学生到快餐店吃饭

没有餐巾纸,然后跟人说要"paper"

结果服务人员拿来了张白纸,还问:Do you need a pen?

很是尴尬...

虽说是梗,这种情景或多或少在现实中上演过。因为一说到“纸”,很多同学的第一反应可能都是“paper”,但英语中,不是所有的“纸”都叫“paper”,搞错了甚至会闹大笑话。

paper

paper常用来表示写字、画画或者打印的纸张,除此之外,还有“试卷;报纸;论文”等意思。所以很多时候,你对老外说“paper”,他们会以为你是要用来写字。

那“餐巾纸”、“厕所用纸”、“厨房用纸”、“湿巾”等不同纸巾对应的英文是什么呢?跟着小编盘点一下:
