Many words in French and English can have more than one meaning. 

You don’t mention which dictionary you are using. Larousse, Collins, Robert wordreference are just some of the free bilingual references on line :

Hi Justin,

   I think of blanket --> couverture.

                  Towel or napkin --> serviette
