millet

Pronounced "mill-lay", (i.e. fillet). A term for toilet, bathroom, water closet, etc. The word's origins lie in the misinterpretation of blackletter type characters on a bathroom door which actually read "toilet", not "millet". The word is most appropriately used with a slight British accent.

Pardon me, I've got to go use the millet.
