Are you in the US? I've only ever heard it called a washing machine or washer. I have never heard laundry machine and so I wondered if it was regional somewhere here that I was unaware of.
I am in a headspace called 12 am in Hong Kong when I wrote that comment and having read the words "do my laundry", we call it a washing machine here too, i'm just dumb
We all have our moments. My brain doesn't work so well at midnight either.
We're saying the same in germany. In German, obviously, but still washing mashine (Waschmaschine).
