To sit together with someone; to occupy a seat alongside another person.
From the prefix 'co-' (together) combined with 'seat' (a place to sit), literally meaning to sit together as a pair or group.
While this word is rarely used in modern English, it represents a broader pattern of 'co-' prefix words that were more common in formal writing, showing how English constantly simplifies or abandons less-useful combinations.
