Still another meaning of "cabin" is a small, simple house (домик), often made of wood (деревянный) or logs (бревенчатый), and typically located in the country (в сельской местности). 

Word "Cabin"

What does "Cabin" mean or is it a contraction of another word?

Hello Marina,

There are a couple of meanings of cabin depending on the context. We usually use it to refer to a room on a ship where you can stay, it can also mean the part of a plane where the passengers sit. A less common meaning is the little room in which you have a shower.

Hope this helps
