"台所" is a Japanese word that means "kitchen". The word is composed of the characters 台 (dai) which means "platform" or "base" and 所 (tokoro) which means "place". The etymology of the word dates back to the Heian period (794-1185), when the kitchen was a separate place from the main house and was built on an elevated platform to prevent fires.
