Talmud for Eruvin 10:5
לֹא יַעֲמֹד אָדָם בִּרְשׁוּת הַיָּחִיד וְיַשְׁתִּין בִּרְשׁוּת הָרַבִּים, בִּרְשׁוּת הָרַבִּים וְיַשְׁתִּין בִּרְשׁוּת הַיָּחִיד. וְכֵן לֹא יָרֹק. רַבִּי יְהוּדָה אוֹמֵר, אַף מִשֶּׁנִּתְלַשׁ רֻקּוֹ בְּפִיו, לֹא יְהַלֵּךְ אַרְבַּע אַמּוֹת עַד שֶׁיָרֹק:
One may not stand in a private domain and urinate into the public domain, [for he thereby "carries" from the private domain to the public domain. And if he did so, he is liable for a sin-offering. And even though picking up (an object) from a place four by four tefachim is required (for liability), urine and spittle are regarded as resting in a place four by four.], (and one may not stand) in the public domain and urinate into a private domain. Likewise, he may not spit (from one domain to another). R. Yehudah says: Also, if his spittle become "dislodged" in his mouth, [i.e., if it became a bolus and turned about in his mouth], he may not walk four cubits without expectorating. [The halachah is not in accordance with R. Yehudah.]
