The [[semantic space]] of {{tp|supa}} includes horizontal surfaces to ~~put~~ or ~~rest~~ something upon, such as ~~{{w|furniture}}~~ and ~~platforms. Seats in particular are often phrased as~~ {{tp|~~supa monsi~~}}~~, a surface to rest the rear (of the body)~~. ~~Therefore a~~ specific type of {{tp|supa}} can be defined by what it is expected to support. {{tp|supa}} can also refer to the horizontal flatness of an object, overlapping with the semantic space of {{tp|lipu}}.

Some speakers define {{tp|supa}} as referring to all furniture in general.<ref name="ku"/> It is not clear how far this extends to furniture that cannot support other objects.

{{tp|supa}} has been contrasted with {{tp|[[poki]]}}, an object that holds other objects by enclosing them. This creates the question of whether to refer to convex holding objects, such as hooks, as {{tp|supa}}, {{tp|poki}}, {{tp|luka}}, or simply {{tp|ilo jo}}.
