What is a "mesa camilla"?
I was listening to this short DELE A1 passage and it was about a person's bedroom. I couldn't figure out what a "mesa camilla" is.
The dictionary says it's a stretcher... which I doubt. It looked like a coffee table when I googled it. So what is it? Is it a coffee table or like a futon?
Thanks in advance!
