Bedsite

/ˈbɛdsaɪt/ noun

Definition

An alternative spelling or informal variant of bedsite; a small furnished room or apartment, similar to a bedsit.

Etymology

Variant of 'bedsit,' emphasizing the 'bed' and 'site' components rather than 'bed' and 'sitting.' Less common than 'bedsit' or 'bedsitter' in modern British English.

Kelly Says

'Bedsite' is a wonderful example of how English speakers naturally create slightly different spellings for the same concept — even in modern times, people write 'bedsite,' 'bedsit,' and 'bed-sit' seemingly interchangeably.
