ed21x is correct in their post.

I can think of some English words that we use in Taiwan that would make you scratch your head and think "What does that mean".

And the term Row House is used in NY.

I can post more links if you want, or even blogs from people describing their "Row House" in NYC.
ed21x is not correct in her post. she said "Townhouses is a uniquely californian term, to describe a type of architecture that only exists in california." that is totally INCORRECT and if you believe that then you both dont know what you are talking about. were you raised in ny and lived there all your life? if not, then whatever. i know FOR A FACT most people use the term "townhouse" NOT rowhouse. for each link you post i can post 10 links to prove you wrong.
