We had this thingie when I was really little, that my parents called a "Hollywood Bed." I never quite figured what that meant, for as a small child I assumed we kept beds in bedrooms, not living rooms. I was in my late twenties before I learned that it's a daybed. I've never heard anyone outside my family call it a Hollywood bed. Well, I never knew until recently what a "daybed" was! It's kind of amusing to me that we have so many words for "couch". They say that a culture will have many words for the things that are important in that culture. Hmm... Joyce |
