EN: sofa, couch, settee
That fancy-sounding word your tita uses for a sofa, especially the small, elegant-looking one in the sala that no one is actually allowed to sit on. It's usually covered in plastic or a very precious-looking throw. It’s a step up from a 'sofa', and leagues away from a humble 'monobloc'.
From French 'canapé' (sofa).
Less common than 'sofa'. Often implies a more formal or elegant piece of furniture. This is a homonym of 'kanape' (appetizer).
