why is a cupboard called that
it has nothing to do with cups or boards
well i guess you could store cups in it and it's made out of boards...

@Felthry 'Cup' also might have had a broader meaning at whatever time the word 'cupboard' came into general use. But that's just my guessing from how words seem to like to evolve.
@Felthry Apparently the original meaning was a board or table used to display dishware. TIL
maybe i answered my own question there
