Mẫu sử dụng:
a [adjective] garment
Lỗi thường gặp:
Learners sometimes say *a clothing* when they mean *a garment*. "Clothing" is usually uncountable, so for one piece you should say *a garment* or *a piece of clothing*. Another confusion is with "cloth": cloth is the material, while a garment is a finished piece of clothing made from cloth or other materials.

Learners rarely use this verb and might think it is common because it looks similar to the noun. In modern English, it is much more natural to say *clothe* or *dress* instead of *garment* as a verb. Use the verb *garment* only in literary or poetic writing, if at all.
