What does SOFA mean in Scrabble?
noun
A long upholstered seat with a back and arms, meant for two or more people.
Long before the word entered English, versions of the object existed in royal courts across the Middle East, where low cushioned platforms served a similar purpose. Today a sofa typically anchors the main seating area of a living room and is often paired with matching chairs. Its cushions and frame are usually reupholstered every few years rather than replaced entirely.
How SOFA is used
Common in both British and American English as the standard word for this type of seating.
- They spent the evening curled up on the sofa watching movies.
- The delivery crew struggled to fit the new sofa through the doorway.
- A cat was sleeping soundly on the sofa cushions.
