A water closet was the first name for "bathroom". Originally, a water closet only held a toilet and water bowl with pitcher (and bucket of water brought in from an outside pump). Though in 1596 John Harrington made the first flushing toilet, it wasn't until 1852 that Joseph Bramah of Yorkshire patented the first practical water closet in England. However, most rural areas in the US still had outhouses up until the 1950s. Though they had indoor Plumbing for water, many people still used galvanized steel round tubs to bathe in, including with heating water on the kitchen stove. As more people got "bath tubs" and took baths in the once-water closets, the room became known as a "bath room", now as the compound word, bathroom. Note: Showers came even later.

What happens if you put a glass of water in a closet?
If you put a glass of water in a closet, the water will remain in the glass until it evaporates or spills. Over time, if the closet is warm and poorly ventilated, the water may slowly evaporate, leading to increased humidity in the closet. If the closet is dark and cool, the water will likely remain unchanged for a longer period. Additionally, if the glass is not covered, dust or debris may settle on the surface of the water.
