Made of silk cloth.
사용 패턴：
[silken] [item made of fabric]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes use 'silken' for any soft cloth, even when it is not made of silk. If you only mean that something feels soft, and it is not really silk, 'silky' or 'soft' is usually better.

사용 패턴：
[silken] [hair/skin/voice/touch/tones]
자주 하는 실수：
Learners often use only 'silky' and do not recognize 'silken' as a more literary or poetic choice. Also, some learners try to use 'silken' as a verb (e.g. *to silken the surface*), which is not natural; use 'make silky' or 'make smooth' instead.
