Sweaters and jumpers and tank tops, oh my!
Thanks for the vocabulary lesson--I really appreciate it. :) I know it's just a little thing, but I had really been wondering exactly what a "jumper" is. Now I know!
By the way, for anyone who is curious, in the USA a jumper is a dress. It's the strappy kind that you wear over a shirt or blouse.
As for tank tops, in the USA a tank top is the same basic shape as Sarah's jumper from _The Time Warrior_. But it's made of cotton or silk or another light-weight material, and it is just for wearing in the summer or for layering under cooler-weather clothes, which is a very popular look at the moment.
If there is any other British clothing-related vocabulary that I should know, don't hesitate to shoot me a message. I love languages, so I always enjoy learning new words. :)
