Talk:timeslot

Etymology

Seems likely that the usage began as an SOP collocation via conceptual metaphor because the successive rows in a scheduling table (for example, a railway timetable, and later, TV listings) are like physical slots (compare post office boxes and similar). However, no idea if it can be traced via published RSs. Something to be pursued if time later. Quercus solaris (talk) 17:40, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
