Dom means the home in Slovene, but also house in a specific context ('Slovenski dom' is the name of locations hosting Slovenian cultural organisations across the world). And koča is our term for a log cabin.

never considered the connection between prijátelj and prijati (to please) either. Also, I'm pretty sure that BSH speakers use príjatelj and drug interchangeably.
