"La najbaro jam sidas sur la sofo."

Translation: The neighbor is already sitting on the sofa.

[dema90]

please meet these beautiful words:

samĉambrano, samdomano, kunloĝanto, samloĝejano, samstratano, apudulo, apudloĝanto ... (all with different nuances)

[Pitaahio]

roommate, housemate, person you live with (is the nuance here that they're a partner/friend rather than a rando?), person who also lives in your dwelling, streetmate, close-by person, close-by dweller?

That was hard

It's too late to tell him about the urine stain.

[Emmanuel_Almazan]

hahaha I wouldn't have found a better complement for that sentence :P

[Snugglesworth]

Cxu najbaro estas aro de najboj? ;)

[ja52ng74]

Najbaroj estas pli ol unu najbaro

[Katzedecimal]

Additional translations for 'sofo' include "couch", "chesterfield", "davenport", and "settee."

[cliff900]

I've never personally heard a sofa called a "chesterfield" or a "davenport." I've never even heard of that. I just looked them up and those each seem to be a particular style of sofa.

[drakovyrn]

Are any of these more prevalent in England or Australia?

[Swisle]

I'm Australian, specifically from Victoria and i tend to only hear and use "couch", although "sofa" is well understood probably due to USA influence.

[drakovyrn]

Actually, I don't really say sofa. Where I'm at, everyone I know says "couch". Maybe it's a southern thing. :P

[Swisle]

I may be wrong about it being USA influence anyway. When i think of external influence on Australia it is often in the form of foreign media which America currently seems to be the largest producer of such content.

[drakovyrn]

Unfortunately so.

[Rippler]

I'm pretty sure most people say couch, definitely not just in the South, but if you buy one, the store will call it a sofa.

[HWF10]

Ho! Ĉu jam ekzistas la verbo "staŭki"? :O

[CorrinTheWolf]

... sed mi ne scias kial, aŭ kiu lasis la kadavron ĉi tie.

La najbarino jam komencis sian banon...
