Just read the entire thing, Staro. Where on earth do you find these, eh? I really like some of these links you put up here, my love!

It is pronounced "toook". A chef wears a chapeau.#29 toque...a hat...
Here in the U.P. we wear a "chook" during the winter...knitted wool covers all of the head folded double over the ear...sometimes w/a...pompom? ball? on top sometimes not. I think the word is French...is that how it is pronounced? I've never known how it is supposed to be spelled and I've spelled it the way it is pronounced here. Thought too, that it is something a chef wears. Is that right?
No, it is a chesterfield. Mom said so....the vast unwashed may have made Bieber famous...but Da Yoopers are all on YOU!...and it's still a damn couch!...
Yup - the word toque is pronounced "chook" (well, at least by French people that I know anyway!)#29 toque...a hat...

Some of the families I knew in Detroit called their "big sitting on piece of furniture" a Davenport. I call it a couch.. or sofa. If some one offered me a Chesterfield I'd probably try to smoke it.No, it is a chesterfield. Mom said so.
We call pull-out sofas Davenport here. Nate, here, a chinook is a wind that brings warm weather in the winter.
