Outhouse
An outhouse (or privy) is a small structure, separate from a main building, which covers a pit latrine or a dry toilet. Outside North America, the term "outhouse" refers not to a toilet but to outbuildings in a general sense. Colloquially, the term is also used to denote the toilet itself, not just the small housing structure. == Terminology == The term "outhouse" is used in North American English for the structure over a pit latrine.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Plans for a five-holer at Sewer History )〕 The structures are referred to by many other terms throughout the English-speaking world, including "dunny" or "long drop" in Australia and New Zealand, and "bog" in the United Kingdom. The terms "kybo" and "biffy" are unique to the Scouting movements.
