What is the difference between a cupboard and an almirah?
1 Answer
The difference between a cupboard and an almirah is the type of storage that each type of furniture provides. A cupboard usually has interior shelves and can be used for storing a wide range of items. Almirahs are specifically for clothing and often feature a hanging rod inside.
