WHAT DOES PLAID MEAN IN GERMAN?

plaid

Plaid is a relatively thin, often patterned woolen blanket. Plaids are often made from high-quality chubby wool, for example from alpaca wool. Plaids, also called the "shoulder cover" in German, are a part of the traditional clothing of the Hochlandschotten. They usually consist of the same tartan fabric as the kilt. Plaids are folded and loosely worn over the shoulder or attached to the shoulder with a brooch. The plaid, which belongs to the full dress military bagpiper, is a woolen cloth about 3.5 yards long and 1.5 yards wide. It is folded several times parallel to the long edge, wrapped around the upper body and attached to the left shoulder with a brooch. As an integral part of civilian evening wear occasionally small plaids are worn, which are attached only to the shoulder and loosely hang down. They are usually square with 1 to 1.5 yards of edge length. A so-called Belted Plaid was part of the clothing of Scottish clans before the introduction of modern kilts.
