How it's used

Originally referring to the act of laying out a mat on the floor to sleep, this term has evolved to describe staying over at someone's house, often in a temporary or informal capacity. It implies sleeping on a makeshift bed, such as a sofa or a mattress on the floor, rather than in a proper guest room. It carries a sense of casualness and is typically used between close friends or family members.

Common mistake

Do not use this to describe staying at a hotel or a formal guest room, as it specifically implies the lack of a proper bed. It is also not suitable for formal situations or when staying with someone you do not know well.
