I'm not sure whether your poll is asking for what those terms mean to the filler-inner, or what terms the filler-inner uses for those items.
To me:
- dishcloth is not a term I would use (I'd just call it a cloth) but it's an absorbent fabric thing used for wiping up spills, cleaning childrens' faces after food, wiping down kitchen surfaces etc. Maybe 6" square kind of size.
- teatowel is a thin piece of fabric with a hook so it can hang up, probably about 24" by 12" at a guess, so larger (and thinner) than a cloth. It's used for drying up dishes etc that have been washed by hand.
- kitchen towel is a hand towel that happens to live in the kitchen for drying hands etc.
- kitchen roll is absorbent paper squares on a roll used for anything you'd use a cloth for if the cloths are all in the wash, and wiping up assorted bodily fluids for easy disposal :-)

We also have a linen tea towel for dish-drying and disposable "kitchen tissue" for spills or to catch veg remains.
