Cupboard, cabinet and closet

what's the difference between them? (this sentence it's correct?)
  

Top answer

My answer reflects British English usage. There is an overlap between "cabinet" and "cupboard". Some cabinets are really no more than cupboards, but "cabinet" can also refer to a fancier piece of furniture, sometimes with glass panel(s), used for displaying items.
