Regional vocabulary — La tina (bathtub) is common in Mexico and Latin America; la bañera is preferred in Spain. Similarly, el lavabo (Spain) vs. el lavamanos (Latin America) for the sink. El retrete / el inodoro (toilet) vs. el baño which informally refers to the whole room. Knowing these variants helps across all Spanish-speaking regions.
