Definition of window seat
window seatnoun
ghế cạnh cửa sổ
The term "window seat" likely originated in the 17th century, during the rise of large, glass-paned windows in homes. Before this, windows were smaller and less common, making a designated "seat" by the window less necessary. The term combines the common noun "window" with the noun "seat", reflecting the simple, descriptive nature of the object. It's likely that the phrase arose naturally from people referring to these newly popular seating arrangements. The combination of the words "window" and "seat" is straightforward and self-explanatory, making it a natural and enduring term.
