Spinning around, cleaning, going to the toilet, changing clothes, washing hands, going to the toilet, fire and water, and going east are all manifestations of going to the toilet. Here, let's look at the words convenience and Deng Dong. The word "going to the toilet" has no convenient meaning. In the Ming Dynasty, for the sake of serious examination discipline, the relevant departments stipulated that when candidates were in a hurry, they must get a sign with the words "Go out to worship" and use this card to enter and leave the toilet and examination room.

East: East, the toilet, also known as going to the pit (squatting in the toilet), so the word "up" in "going to the toilet" actually means a purpose, and its purpose is to "discharge waste", and the discharged waste must be "down", so "going to the toilet" means "squatting down" (here, the word "down" and "going to the toilet" have the same meaning. If we say "go to the toilet", semantically speaking, collocation is problematic, because the verb "go down" here can't be a place, but a "waste". Therefore, it is correct to interpret "boarding" as "squatting, staying, stepping and stepping".
