Place card

A place card is a small piece of paper or card that has a person's name on it. It is usually used at a fancy dinner or event to tell people where they should sit at the table. Think of it like a special ticket that tells you where you get to sit. The person who is hosting the event will make these cards and put them on the table in front of the chair where each person should sit. The card helps everyone know where they should sit and makes sure that everyone has a spot at the table. So basically, it's just like a sign with your name on it telling you where to sit at a fancy dinner!
