What curtains do people have in the US that this is called European curtains?

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago

I may be wrong since I don't live in the US but when you say "curtains" people will think of those that completely block light. You'd use them for the theater room for example to watch movies on a projector during day. In eastern Europe however when you say curtains it can also mean those transparent ones. They even use different words for each type but both translate to curtains as far as I know.
