Cabinet terminology

[Guilliaume woodworks]

After reading posts from carpenters worldwide, I'm learning new terms for cabinet components.. Examples...what I call a toe-kick is also referred to as a plinth..also I think a pelmet is a light rail ??  Just for fun can anyone add to list? I know there's a lot more..

Pelmet is also a box like structure covering or containing curtain rails.

Rarely seen in newer homes these days, at least way down here.
