lap
Thighs when seated
Lap is most frequently a noun with two main meanings: the distance around a running track or twice the length of a swimming pool (run a lap, swim laps); and the top of your thighs when you are sitting down: I have a cat in my lap.
The verb lap most frequently characterizes the motion of waves on a shore, or the action of taking up a liquid with the tongue, like dogs and cats do.
If one thing laps on or over another, it covers or overhangs it.
