davenport

1) The word used, in particular by grandmas and those from the south, to call a large sofa, typically brown and furry. The sofas are "L" shaped and decorated with doilies and cheeto dust. Itchy blankets don the arm rest and occasionally orniry cats emerge from in between the cusions. When used in this sense, it is commonly pronounced "Damport"
2) A town in Iowa
3) More simply put, a couch

Grandma: Hurry up or we'll be late for the town pork roast.
