Häufiger Fehler:
Learners often confuse "waterproof" with "water-resistant". "Waterproof" usually means no water gets through at all under normal use, while "water-resistant" means it can handle some water, but not as much. Another mistake is saying "waterproof from water"; you normally just say "waterproof shoes" or "shoes that are waterproof" without adding "from water".

Häufiger Fehler:
Learners sometimes drop the object and say "I will waterproof" without saying what will be waterproofed, which sounds incomplete in most contexts. Another mistake is confusing the verb and adjective and saying "I will waterproof my jacket is" instead of either "I will waterproof my jacket" (verb) or "My jacket is waterproof" (adjective).

Häufiger Fehler:
Some learners do not realize that "a waterproof" can be a noun meaning a coat or set of clothes, especially in British English, and only use "waterproof" as an adjective. Others sometimes say "a waterproof coat" when they mean the standalone noun; both are correct, but "a waterproof" alone is more compact and common in UK usage.
Bedeutung

Wortverbindungen
a lightweight waterproof
|a hooded waterproof
|pack a waterproof

|bright yellow waterproof
|hire waterproofs
Synonyme
raincoat (Specifically a coat for rain; very close in meaning, but "waterproof" can also refer to trousers or full suits.)
