Častá chyba:
Learners often think 'frock' can be used for any kind of clothing, including men's clothing. In modern English, it is mainly used for women's or girls' dresses and is less common than the word 'dress'. Learners may also try to use 'frock' as a verb like 'I frock every morning'; this sounds unnatural—use 'get dressed' or 'put on my clothes' instead.
