EN: sofa, couch
The throne of the house where the remote control king/queen reigns. It's the battlefield for the best spot during movie night, the designated napping area for titos, and the place where you find loose change and a month-old chip. It's a loanword, obviously. We just spell it like it sounds.
From Spanish 'sofá', from Arabic 'ṣuffah'.
