I understand tofu is a word translated from Chinese or Japanese. At first, I thought bean curd is the word for it, but I heard many people call it tofu. So, I'm wondering which one I should call it.
What do you call it? tofu or bean curd?

when i was growing up my mom calls it tokwa. maybe those chinese people are the one who calls that. but during my college years i slowly hear on tv the culinary experts calls it tofu. and i think it is more popularly known as tofu than what i can remember of tokwa. even in restaurants here it is more popularly called as tofu and not bean curd.
