Word origin

The modern lodging term 双床房 (shuāngchuángfáng, "twin room") combines 双 (shuāng, "two"), 床 (chuáng, "bed"), and 房 (fáng, "room") in a direct description of its layout.

Usage tips

  • In English hotel language, twin identifies a bed arrangement, not a family relationship between the guests, so it does not mean a room for twins.
