Examples

.

My bedroom is small but warm.

.

The children are playing in the bedroom.

.

In the bedroom there is only a bed and a chair.

This is Esperanto doing what it does best: you already knew and you already knew , so costs you nothing to learn. The -o- in the middle is the optional linking vowel that keeps two consonants apart and the word sayable. The same trick gives manĝoĉambro for a dining room and for a bathroom.
