The act of sitting down.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Offering a seat is a mandatory sign of respect for elderly people in public transport. Similar to Romania, the phrase is used in the exact same way to show hospitality. In more traditional households, the host might insist you take the 'best' seat. In business, it is used to quickly settle a meeting.
