How do you call these things in your language?

I will start with mine, Catalan. I will include the pronunciation (sometimes with variants). I hope that 4chan accepts all those characters.

Most of the words, if not all. Most Slovenes have no idea what a stolica is supposed to be (in Slovene it means a university chair in the sense of teaching position), but we could decipher words like salveta (we also say servet), and čaša (means cup in Slovene, but the analogy to glass can be drawn). We could not understand the MENA word tanjur and the unfamiliar construction stolnjak, but that's all.

>MENA word tanjur
But miza, meaning table, probably comes from Persian meze, with the same meaning XD

Wikitonary says it comes from mensa, which makes more sense considering we border Italy.
