Clothes and belongings

For shirts, jumpers, coats and dresses — anything on the upper body or the whole body.

One verb for taking off everything, whatever verb put it on.

For trousers, skirts, socks and shoes. For shoes the kanji 履(は)く is also used.

The same verb hangs a coat on a hook and makes a phone call: 電話(でんわ)をかける.

持(も)っています is the usual way to say you own something or have it on you.

The place where something is left behind takes に.

Written 差(さ)す in kanji, but kana is usual for umbrellas.

Originally Western dress as opposed to kimono; now simply clothes, a little more formal than 服(ふく).

From English "white shirt", but it means the buttoned shirt worn with a suit, whatever its colour.

Put on with はく, like a skirt or shoes.

Pairs are counted with 〜足(そく): 一足(いっそく), one pair.

Worn with する; 締(し)める, to tie, is the more exact verb.

Often written in kana, めがね. Worn with かける.

Both a wristwatch and a clock; a wristwatch alone is 腕時計(うでどけい).

Often written in kana.

Carried to dry the hands, because not every public toilet has towels or a dryer.

Also the button you press on a machine.

Worn with する or はめる.
