made from wool
Made from wool, usually talking about clothes or cloth.
ਵਰਤੋਂ ਦਾ ਢਾਂਚਾ:
woollen [item of clothing]
ਆਮ ਗਲਤੀ:
Learners sometimes confuse "wool" and "woollen" and say *"a wool sweater" or *"a sweater of woollen" incorrectly. Both "a wool sweater" and "a woollen sweater" are acceptable, but "woollen" must always describe a noun (e.g. "a woollen jumper"), while "wool" is usually a material noun and only sometimes used as an adjective. Learners may also mix spellings: "woollen" (UK) vs "woolen" (US).
ਸਮਾਨਾਰਥਕ ਸ਼ਬਦ
woolen (Same meaning; preferred American spelling, while "woollen" is chiefly British.)
|
wool (Used before a noun as a modifier (e.g. "wool coat"); slightly more general and more common globally.)
ਵਿਲੋਮ ਸ਼ਬਦ
cotton (Refers to items made from cotton instead of wool, so it contrasts with "woollen" when talking about fabric type.)

wool clothes (Informal description rather than a set noun; slightly more explicit but less compact than "woollens".)
