drawer

[C] Đếm được

Số nhiều: drawers

The word carries a strong association with containment and hidden space. When referring to furniture, it evokes a sense of organization or, conversely, a place where things are forgotten or tucked away from sight. It is a neutral, utilitarian term used in every domestic setting. In financial or artistic contexts, the term shifts from a physical object to a human agent. In banking, it is a technical term for the party initiating a payment, while in art, it is a literal description of a creator, though the term artist is more common in modern conversation.

Used for individual sliding compartments in a desk or a person who sketches.
