Bonnet (English spelling)

Japanese: ボンネット(英語表記)bonnet
Bonnet (English spelling)
A basic type of hat for women. It covers most of the head from the top to the back, but exposes the forehead and face almost entirely. It generally has a wide brim around the face, and usually has no brim at the back, or only a small brim. In France, all cloth hats were called bonnets until the 16th century. In the 18th century, it came to mean a hood-like hat for women, and was then introduced into English as bonnet. Another theory is that the word derives from the Hindi word banat (a coarsely woven cloth). The 19th century was the heyday of bonnets, and they came in a wide variety of shapes. Currently, they are used for infants and young children.

Japanese:
婦人帽の基本的な型の一つ。頭頂から後頭部をほとんどおおっているが,前額部から顔にかけてはほぼ全面的に露呈する。概して顔を縁どる部分に幅広いブリムを伴う場合が多く,後頭部にはブリムはまったくないか,わずかにあるのが普通。フランスでは 16世紀まであらゆる布製の帽子をボンネ bonnetと呼んだ。 18世紀になると頭巾状の婦人帽をさすようになり,それが英語に導入されてボンネットとなった。またヒンディー語の banat (織り目の粗い布) からきたとする説もある。 19世紀はボンネットの全盛時代で,きわめて多様な形が現れた。現在は乳幼児用に用いられる。
