People can stop complaining about "historically inaccurate foods" in their RPGs now

I had a real moment in my Norwegian language class. Kommode in Norwegian means a dresser. Not, like, the other thing.

I guess there’s lots of these terms for furniture that are quite situational, like “coffee table” or “ottoman”.
