- 1嬰兒床(英式);行軍床/摺疊床(美式)
In British English, a cot is a small bed with high sides made for a baby, so the baby cannot climb out or fall. In American English, the same word usually means something different: a simple, narrow folding bed used for camping, or for an extra guest to sleep on. Both meanings are common, so which one people mean depends on where they are from.
