Dear teachers,

Would you share with me your opinion concerning the interpretation of the expression in bold in the following sentences?
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]Speed was very nervous as he took his seat on the dais at five to seven and watched the school straggling to their places.
[FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
At every feast, Arthur and Guinevere were “seated on a dais.”

dais = a platform raised usually above the floor of a hall or large room to give distinction or prominence to those occupying it

Thank you for your efforts.
