a window in a b., , In the bathing-room (baðstofa) used to be in the rear of the houses, ii. 198. The modern sense of baðstofa is sitting-room, probably from its being in modern dwellings placed where the old bathing-room used to be. The etymology of Jon Olafsson ( Dict. ), baðstofa = bakstofa, is bad. In old writers baðstofa never occurs in this modern sense, but it is used so in the Saga Major:—a closet, room, in writers of the 16th century, ii. 244, 256, 504, . 77, 92, 95, 96.
