<< review queue entry 38313 - submitted by 'ycandau' >> we have 袖口; dicts generally don't seem to have 裤口 In both cases it's not really cuff. ex: 袖口裤口很紧 "sleeve opening"? Editor: Right, a pair of trousers may have no cuff, but they would have 裤口s. (unless they look like this ~ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Thorsberg_Trousers.jpg) ;-) The correct term is "trouser leg opening", apparently ~ http://www.styleforum.net/t/257771/trouser-leg-opening-size-what-range-is-acceptable-how-you-should-decide By the way ~ 1) Wp ~ "Most trouser legs are finished by hemming the bottom to prevent fraying. Trousers with turn-ups ("cuffs" in American English), after hemming, are rolled outward and sometimes pressed or stitched into place. The main reason for the cuffs is to add weight to the bottom of the leg, to help the drape of the trousers. Originally, however, it started as men rolling up their trousers to avoid getting mud splashed on them when roads were still unpaved." 2) I see we have an entry 袪 [qu1] /sleeve opening/ . . . (ABC calls it a "sleeve cuff") |
