      A lot more specific though. I don’t know (or remember) one of the kanji but it seems to be along the lines of “Thanks for using the toilet cleanly”

        First one is “use” and second is like in “itadakimasu” that a lot of people probably know, and I can’t think how to word it in this context. It’s part of the “thank you”. A proper English version of the sign would say exactly your translation.

          I usually go with something like “the kindness of” in contexts like this. It has a bit of the “humble receiving” flavor of itadaku.

          So, something like, “Thanks for the kindness of using the toilet cleanly,” or even “Thanks for doing us the kindness of using the toilet cleanly.”

          Not perfect, but I think it does a decent job of preserving the vibe.

    I am disinclined to acquiesce to that request.

    Means “no”!

    I just imagined a karaoke-like score being displayed at the end of the urination performance.
