Things inside my house the Lounge

You know what the things in your lounge are called in your own language. But what are they called in English? In this lesson you will learn words about the various items in your lounge. If a Kiwi asked you to sit on the Lazy Boy, what would you do? An Ottoman may originally be from Turkey, but how would you recognise it today? Shouldn't a bean bag be in the kitchen? Fun discoveries with everyday words.
