Translation
armchair
Definition
An armchair is a comfortable chair with side supports for a person's arms. Unlike a standard chair, it typically has padded armrests and a soft, cushioned seat, making it ideal for relaxing in a living room, study, or lounge area. Armchairs come in various styles, from classic upholstered designs to modern leather models, and are often used for reading, watching television, or simply resting. This term can also metaphorically refer to someone who gives advice without direct experience, as in 'armchair critic,' but the primary meaning is the physical piece of furniture.
