Actually what is currently a chair USED to be called a NAIL--until an important idiot asked exactly the same question and changed the name. Are you an important dude ??

Good question. That is because, I would say, a chair is a chair, and not a nail.
Hope that helps.

It is Called Kurchi in Telugulanguage and Kurci in Hindi. You may call it JUNK and popularize it and becomes a word latter on

The etymology of "chair" can be traced to Latin roots - the "ch" means "sit" and the "air" means "your *** down!"

You call objects whatever you want. You have chosen to use the language that other people will understand.
