[옫] ot clothes

This set covers everyday clothing words: shirts, pants, coats and the clothes you wear in each season. You will use them when you shop at a store or online, ask about sizes, or describe what you are wearing. Korean uses different verbs for putting on different items, such as 입다 for clothes, 신다 for socks and shoes, and 쓰다 for hats, but this lesson focuses on the nouns. Many clothing names for Western-style garments are loanwords, so many are easy to guess. Traditional clothing is called hanbok, and most middle and high school students in Korea wear a school uniform.
