pop
I heard a native English speaker saying
pop it into the bin meaning throw something in the trash bin.
1. Is it a proper English adult and children should pick up?
2. Any other ways in using pop...into in common use?
__________________________________________________ ____
go to the loo for going to the washroom.
3. Is it a proper English adult and children should pick up.
4. Is I want to go to the loo in proper English structure?
__________________________________________________ ____
5. Are the above questions in right structure?

Re: pop
Hi, Ju.
If by "proper English" you mean "not offensive", yes they're proper English.
There are many other ways "pop into" is used. Other examples:
1. Pop [the pizza] into the microwave oven.
2. You should pop into the restaurant tomorrow.
There are probably much more. But I think the meanings are very close to each other so they will be easy to understand.
1. Is it a proper English adult and children should pick up? - 1. Is it proper English adult and children should pick up? No "a" because English is only one.

Re: pop
You can even pop into the loo.
Keep in mind that "loo" is British English.
