WHAT DOES PINNY MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Pinafore

A pinafore /ˈpɪnəfɔər/ is a sleeveless garment worn as an apron. Pinafores may be worn by girls as a decorative garment and by both girls and women as a protective apron. A related term is pinafore dress, which is British English for what in American English is known as a jumper dress, i.e. a sleeveless dress intended to be worn over a top or blouse. A key difference between a pinafore and a jumper dress is that the pinafore is open in the back. In informal British usage however, a pinafore dress is sometimes referred to as simply a pinafore, which can lead to confusion. The name reflects that the pinafore was formerly pinned to the front of a dress. The pinafore had no buttons, was simply "pinned on the front" which led to the term "pinafore."...
