minus-squarem-p{3}@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoNever heard “half bath”, and I always called those washrooms.
minus-square[deleted]@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·edit-21 year agoIt is common in the US, frequently they will be listed as 2 & 1/2 baths if they have two with tubs and one without. Haven’t paid enough attention to know how they list multiple 1/2 baths but pretty sure they don’t add up like regular fractions… I always found the term 1/2 bath weird.
minus-squarenullptr@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0arrow-down1·1 year agothat’s some realtor math. they are known to magically inflate surface before you buy it, and shrink it back once you bought / rented it. Mathematicians can’t explain that !
