    小知识

    Something you can sit on, especially if it's a bench, stool, sofa, or chair, is a seat. Most bicycles have one seat, while many motorcycles have two seats.

    If your teacher invites you to “Take a seat,” he means “Find a chair and sit in it.” There are seats in cars and airplanes, around tables, in restaurants, and in movie theaters. As a verb, seat means “help someone find a place to sit,” the way an usher seats audience members at a concert. Some people also use seat to mean “bottom” or “buttocks,” or the section of your pants that covers this body part.
