Do you sit on

a couch
a sofa
a settee
something else in the same line (no fair saying 'a chair')?

Do you perceive any difference between these three things? Can you define it?

usually couch - very rarely sofa and never settee. one of my grandmothers called it a davenport, but that's not common around here as far as I know

That's very interesting, because I always thought a davenport was a desk, but I see that it is a regionalism for couch. Thanks!
