6 hrs confidence:
environments Explanation: I think your hesitation may have had to do with using "environments" in the plural. So I gave it the acid test and searched for "environments+furnished" and got 177 hits for the plural. I wasn't aware of the use of this word in the plural, but it's definitly part of the jargon in the furniture industry. |
