A better alternative for the word 'urine' [closed]

Solution 1:

By far, the most common euphemisms for urine (n.) are pee and number one. Beyond those, there are more: excretion, liquid body waste, P, piddle, tinkle, waste, water, wee, wee-wee.

In a religious context, the choices are different. Not knowing which religion you mean, I compared fifteen translations of 2 Kings 18:27 (a sacred text from my cultural tradition) and found the following:

  • urine (8 translations)
  • water (4 translations)
  • excretion (1 translation)
  • piss (1 translation: not a euphemism any more, but this was the term common at the time of King James)
  • waste (1 translation)

On a side note, there are also plenty of euphemisms for urinate, and those get interesting. For example, apparently the English spend a penny. One of my good friends always says he has to see a man about a horse.

Solution 2:

I suppose you could use "micturition", but really, "urine" is the correct scientific term, and no-one will know what you are talking about if you do change it.
