<注释>Chesterfield, a term for any type of sofa, was probably brought down from Canada, where it is common.According to Craig M. Carver inAmerican Regional Dialects, this regionalism is .unique to northern California..The word probably comes from the name of a 9th-century earl of Chesterfieldand originally referred .specifically to a couch with upright armrests at either end..It appears to have come into use in Canada around 903and in Northern California at about the same time.
