The word 'couch' originated in Middle English from the Old French noun 'courgette', which derived from the verb meaning 'to catch wind in your legs'. And the word sofa is from Turkish derived from the Arabic word suffa for 'gone with the wind', originating in the Aramaic word sippa for ' disappear'.
