What is "the needful sir"

[-] Tum@lemmy.world 46 points 7 months ago

it's a quite common phrase in indo-english, "please do the needful" which means like, please do whatever is necessary.

I swear, I always feel like someone is asking me to use the bathroom.

It does sound like a euphemism

But what does he mean by this? I have not done the needful sir? What is he referring to? Like consummation?

He hasn't thought it it through?
