Spelling Tips: Chest of Drawers or Chester Drawers?

We all need somewhere to keep our socks. But should it be a chest of drawers or a chester drawers? Spoiler: the correct term here is always “chest of drawers.” But let’s take a look at what this term means and how to use it so you can be sure to avoid mistakes in your writing.

What Is A Chest of Drawers?

A chest of drawers is a piece of furniture, typically used to store clothing:

Mother found a lovely chest of drawers at the antiques market.

I keep my files in a box on top of my chest of drawers .

In most cases, a chest of drawers will feature several horizontal drawers stacked one above another. This is sometimes also called a drawers table or bureau, especially in American English.

The Error: Chester Drawers

The term ‘chest of drawers’ is often mistakenly written as “Chester drawers” or “chester drawers.” For instance:

Mother found a lovely set of Chester drawers at the antiques market.

This may result from mishearing “chest of” as “chester,” or perhaps people think that Chester is the name of a brand, person, manufacturer, or the place where the furniture item originated (e.g., Chester in England).

Regardless of the origin, though, “chester drawers” is always an error. So, unless you’ve named a character in a story “Chester Drawers,” you should avoid using this term and use “chest of drawers” instead.

Summary: Chest of Drawers or Chester Drawers?

A “chest of drawers” is an item of furniture used for storage. You may see the same furniture described as a “drawers table” or a “bureau.”

However, “chester drawers” is always an error and should be corrected. To avoid potentially embarrassing typos like this, though, you can always hire one of our professional proofreaders, who will check your documents to make sure your grammar, spelling, and punctuation is perfect.

Draws or Drawers

I've always thought that the things that pull out of a cabinet were called drawers. The first time I saw someone use the term "draws" I thought they were just uneducated or couldn't spell.

But I've seen the term "draws" used a lot on here and on CL, so I"m wondering whether it is a proper use as well, or whether its common usage in some parts of the country. Does anyone know for sure?

I noticed that mostly comes from people on the east coast that tend to pronounce it as "draws" instead of drawers.

The word 'drawer' is a derivative of the word draw, because you 'draw' or pull out from cover or possession.

Its slurred speech turned into slurred typing.

While we're on this topic, are the words "think" and "thing" synomonous? I'm under the impression they are in fact not, but maybe somethink (incorrect on purpose) has changed?

I've seen a great deal of the substitution along these lines:

"wow, did you see that think? It was cool . "

or
"That think was fast"

Is it a typo, or do people really think the two words are equal?

From the person who abbreviates "thanks".

Seriously though, I would not take your grammar and spelling lessons from.
Craigslist. Everyday I see things like "wratchets", "renches", "skrewdriever", etc. etc.

Yes, for true - that sig line is a holdover from corporate days when our president wanted to be hip with his new crackberry. He started using all lower case txt style messages. Since the e-mail/text header had all the info in the "from" line, he omitted even a signature. Being one of the old school guys, I felt that was a bit curt, so I just added "thnx, jv."

On most of the fora of which I am a member, we get to know each other and sometimes do some cash business, so I always use my name in addition to a handle, so from now on it's "thanks, jack vines."

Ahhhh No need to change anything. Just thought it was funny that you were making fun of the txtr's then abbreviate "thanks" in your signature. No personal insult intended.

'Drawers' not 'draws'

Apologies if this has been brought up before. I cringe when people write 'draws' instead of ' drawers'. This happens all the time on the Buy swap or sell type sites on the internet. They will refer to 'chest of draws' or 'table with a draw' or similar phrases. I suppose because so many people now misspell the word it will soon be alright to do so. Grrrrrr!

I worked on a job share with a colleague, who always left me a note when she left saying that she had left the work in the draw, it drove me crazy. every single day. When I left my work for her, I spelt it correctly, but she never did.
Go figure.

I did it the other way round the other day!

We do say 'draw' rather than 'draw-er'

My Oxford and Cambridge educated teacher of English said allright should have a double el.

PS My youngest daughter is a very good drawer.

I have noticed this particularly with catalogues from auction houses. They don’t seem to be able to get to grips with the fact that chests have drawers, but telescopes have draws!!

Am I the only one who thought this was another thread from a certain male member

In Scotland (and I suspect N England) we do say something closer to “draw-ers”

Yes Greyduster now you come to mention it I have seen it in auction house catalogues.

MawBroon coming from the east Neuk of Fife I am still guilty of that.

Thanks MawBroom. Enjoyed Flanders and Swann being rude.

No guilt, Charleygirl; I'm sure that's how it was originally pronounced. Though I suspect that had we gone on pronouncing it like that it would have ended up as 'droorers' (the things you 'draw out')

I blame it on we English who refuse to talk properly.

Baggs My (very old) English teacher used to make us write it as two words 'all right'. I expect that 'almost' used to be 'all most' at one time and I suspect that 'a lot' will very shortly become 'alot'.

maw

Oh Maw I had completely forgotten that!
My mum used to sing it sometimes and we thought she was disgusting! (we loved it!)

I hate the thought that the people who spell things wrong are probably thinking that my correct version is wrong. I have a friend who corrected my pronunciation of "thesaurus". She laughed and stated. "Don't you know it's Theosaurus". I should have told her that a Theosaurus was an erudite dinosaur but it would have gone over her head.

maw
pensionpat my response in that situation (usually after being contradicted by MrA) is to raise my eyebrows and say in my best Joyce Grenfell tone ‘I think you’ll find I’m right’

Love that, Maw!

We have several murals in our town and another one is being prepared. I'm afraid to say it is usually referred to as a 'muriel'.

I am perfectly happy to “stand corrected” as my Granny used to say, but less chuffed when I am right.
So GabriellaG if you are reading this I did mean “whose grammar” and not what you thought it should be (because that would be “who is grammar “ and altogether too profound a philosophical discussion.)

I keep my ‘draws’ in my drawers?

Reviews for "Lunar Wotch Aesthetic: The Intersection of Art and Spirituality"

1. Sarah - 2/5 - I personally did not enjoy the Lunar Watch aesthetic at all. I found it to be incredibly flashy and overwhelming. The bright colors and futuristic design just didn't appeal to me. Additionally, the LED lights on the watch face were distracting and made it difficult to actually read the time. I prefer a more simplistic and minimalistic design when it comes to watches, so the Lunar Watch was definitely not my cup of tea.

2. Michael - 1/5 - The Lunar Watch aesthetic was a complete miss for me. The bold, bulky design felt like it was trying too hard to be futuristic and stylish. The color combinations were jarring and the overall appearance was too busy for my taste. I found it difficult to even recognize the watch as a timepiece, as the emphasis seemed to be more on the design rather than functionality. I much prefer a classic, understated watch that focuses on elegance and simplicity.

3. Emily - 2/5 - The Lunar Watch aesthetic was a disappointment for me. The watch looked much better in the advertisements than it did in person. The overall quality of the materials used felt cheap and the watch lacked the sleek and polished look that I expected. The bright and flashy colors were not to my taste, and I found myself avoiding wearing the watch altogether. Overall, I was not impressed with the Lunar Watch's aesthetic and would not recommend it to others looking for a fashionable watch.
