azotea
/aθoˈtea/ · B2 · noun · f
patio
🏠 a-ZO-tea: tea on the roof, a flat rooftop, and your head is the top too
Sounds like 'a-so-tea-uh': picture-free hook is to link tea served up on the flat roof terrace. Slang extends it: the head is the top of the body, just as the azotea is the top of a building, hence bonce or noggin. Etymology: from Arabic as-suṭayḥa, 'the small flat surface'.
