Exercise 14
Translate the following sentences into English:
Наша ванна кімната дуже проста і звичайна, але зручна. Ліворуч біля стіни стоїть світло-зелена ванна. Праворуч від ванни – умивальник. На ньому – мильниця з духмяним милом, над ним на стіні вісить дзеркало і поличка для тюбиків зубної пасти, бритви для гоління, зубних щіток й аптечки. Ванна також укомплектована душовою кабіною, вмонтованою так, щоб не було видно непривабливих труб. Далі праворуч – вішалка для рушників з махровими рушниками та халатом. У лівому кутку – унітаз з бачком і ручкою для спускання води у вигляді кнопки. Поряд з ним стоїть держак для паперу та біде. В іншому кутку – сучасна пральна машина і корзина для брудної білизни. Зліва від неї у стіні – невеличка шафа для прального порошка та інших миючих засобів. Біля ванни – червоний гумовий килимок для ванної кімнати, а біля унітазу – махровий килимок.
