Origin

Mid 17th century (originally Anglo-Indian, denoting a light bedstead): from Hindi khāṭ 'bedstead, hammock'.

We have the British Empire to thank for the child's cot (mid 17th century), which started life as an Anglo-Indian word for a light bedstead. The origin is the Hindi word khāt ‘bedstead or hammock’. A less familiar cot is an old word for a small, simple cottage, used nowadays as a term for a small shelter for livestock. Closely related to this word are cottage (Late Middle English), and cote (Old English) as in dovecote, though that too once meant ‘cottage’.
