Sombrero (English spelling)

Japanese: ソンブレロ(英語表記)sombrero
Sombrero (English spelling)
A broad-brimmed, high-topped hat worn by both men and women in Latin America. Some are made of woven straw or bark, and others are made of felt. They are generally in the natural colors of straw or bark, brown, white, black, or gray, and often have primary-colored trim or tassels. The word originally referred to a canopy, mushroom cap, or wide-brimmed hat in general, but in the 16th century, when Spain ruled Latin America, the hat unique to this region came to be called a sombrero, and has since become common. There are various styles and names depending on the region, with the most well-known being the charro in Mexico, the gaucho in Argentina, and the huasos in Chile. The cowboy hat (also called a tengallon hat) of western North America is a successor to this style.

ラテンアメリカ諸国で男女のかぶる,つば広の,頭頂が高く突き出た帽子。麦わら,木の皮などを編んだもの,フェルト製のものがある。色はいずれも麦わら,木の皮の自然色,褐色,白,黒,灰色などが多く,原色の縁飾り,房飾りがつく。本来,天蓋,キノコの傘,つばの広い帽子全体をさすスペイン語であるが,16世紀,スペインがラテンアメリカ諸国を支配していた当時,この地方独特の帽子を特にソンブレロというようになり,以後普遍化した。地域により型,名称ともにいろいろあり,なかでもメキシコのチャロ charro,アルゼンチンのガウチョ gaucho,チリのウアソス huasosなどが代表的。北アメリカ西部のカウボーイハット (テンガロンハット tengallon hatともいう) は,この型を引継いだものである。
