sat down
Used a chair
Sat down is the past tense of sit down, emphasizing the act of taking a seat rather than simply being seated.
Where sat alone might describe a state (I sat there for hours), sat down highlights the transition: She sat down across from me.
The phrase can also describe settling into a task: We sat down to negotiate.
