Posso ir ao banho is a Portuguese equivalent of 'May I go to the bathroom'. The verb 'posso' means '[I] am able to or can'. The infinitive 'ir' means 'to go'. The Word 'ao' combines the preposition 'a' and the masculine definite article 'o' to mean 'to the'. The masculine noun 'banho' means 'bathroom'. All together, they're pronounced 'POHSO-soo eeh* ow BAH-nyoo'.

*The 'r' in Portugal and according to the carioca accent of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil sounds more like the French 'r'than the Spanish.
