kotatsu; heated table with quilt
A low table with an electric heater underneath, covered by a quilt to trap heat. Originally used a charcoal brazier set in a floor well. A common household item in winter.
In winter, I like sitting under the kotatsu and eating mandarin oranges.
こたつでうたた寝してしまった。
I dozed off under the kotatsu.
It was cold, so I got under the kotatsu and watched TV.
The cat is curled up asleep under the kotatsu.
In winter, I look forward to eating mikan at the kotatsu.
It's about time to set up the kotatsu for the season.
