the space next to a bed

The place right next to a bed, where a person can sit or stand.

Használati minta: at [someone]'s bedside
Gyakori hiba:
Learners sometimes confuse "bedside" with "bedtime". "Bedside" is a place next to the bed, while "bedtime" is the time when you go to sleep. Another mistake is to say *"in the bedside"* instead of "at the bedside" or "by the bedside" when talking about location.
Szinonimák
side of the bed (More literal and descriptive; lacks the common association with care for a sick person.)
Antonimák
away from the bed (Describes being at a distance, not in the immediate area next to the bed.)

Használati minta: bedside [noun]
Gyakori hiba:
Learners sometimes say *"table bedside"* instead of "bedside table" or use "bedside" alone as a noun for the piece of furniture (e.g., *"I put it on the bedside"*). In this sense, "bedside" is used before another noun: "bedside table", "bedside lamp", not usually by itself.
Szinonimák
nightstand (Refers specifically to a small table next to a bed, not to all objects used beside the bed.)
Antonimák
wall-mounted (Describes something fixed on a wall rather than placed next to the bed; contrasts with movable bedside items.)
