يجذب ذراع المياة بالمرحاض

Explanation:
يجذب "ذراع المياة بالمرحاض"
أو "يجذب ذراع المياة" فقط

هكذا ترجمت هذا التعبير من قبل في فيلم
meet the parents
حيث كان هناك قط بالمنزل مدرب على دخول الحمام واستعمال المرحاض وكان "يجذب ذراع المياة بالمرحاض" بنفسه لكي ينظفه. أفادني استخدام هذا التعبير، أي "يجذب ذراع المياة"، في أن أرسم صورة فورية وتلقائية لمعنى التعبير في ذهن المشاهد، حيث أنني اقتربت كثيراً من التعبير الشائع في العامية هو "يشد السافون".

flush
3.a. To clean, rinse, or empty with a rapid flow of a liquid,
especially water: flush a toilet; flush a wound with iodine
(AHD).

يجذب ذراع صندوق الطرد

Explanation:
يجذب ذراع صندوق الطرد
لا يصح قول (يشطف صندوق الطرد) لأن صندوق الطرد ما هو إلا حاوية للمياه يشد ذراعها فتتدفق المياه لشطف المرحاض نفسه
والله أعلم
