Spanish ..... Nidos de cajones semejantes a cajas contenidos en la parte delantera por un alerón que cae hacia abajo para formar una superficie de escritura. Para escritorios con la cubierta plana sobre patas largas, que generalmente toma la forma de una mesa con un único cajón largo en el faldón, use "mesa de escritura”.
