A cubicle is a small part of a room, split off from the rest by walls or screens that often do not reach the ceiling. In an office, a cubicle is one person's desk space. At a pool or gym, a cubicle is where you change clothes. In a public toilet, each small locked stall is a cubicle. It is a stall or a workspace, not a full room with its own door and ceiling. The word is ordinary — neither fancy nor slang. It is not usually a place you would sleep, even though the old Latin word meant a bedroom.
隔間（辦公室座位、更衣室、廁所小間都叫）
組成From Late Middle English cubicle, from Latin cubiculum, a bedroom. English also has the rare word cubiculum from the same Latin parent — they are doublets. It does not come from cube.
