Coth, a rare English word meaning a small cottage or shelter, has quite a few synonyms. These include hut, cabin, shack, chalet, bungalow, gite, lodge, retreat, cottage and pavilion. Each word has its own connotations and can describe slightly different types of structures. For example, a bungalow typically has fewer distinguishing features than a cottage, while a pavilion is larger and more open than a hut. Ultimately, the word choice depends on the context and intended meaning. Regardless, all these synonyms encapsulate the idea of a small, cozy and often rustic dwelling.
