1. 1(美)大型沙發椅;(英)小型書桌(較舊式的說法)

    This is an old-fashioned word for a piece of furniture, and , it means two different things depending on where you are. In American English, a davenport is usually a big sofa (couch), sometimes one that can fold out into a bed. In British English, a davenport usually means a small writing desk. You won't hear this word very often in modern conversation - it sounds a bit old or formal now.
