How to use 羽绒服
羽绒服 is the everyday word for a puffy down jacket worn in cold weather. The measure word is usually 件 (jiàn). Example: 今天很冷，你穿羽绒服吧。(Jīntiān hěn lěng, nǐ chuān yǔróngfú ba.) It is cold today, wear your down jacket.
Break it into three parts: 羽 (yǔ) feather, 绒 (róng) fluffy down, and 服 (fú) clothing. A coat stuffed with feathers and soft down is a 羽绒服.
Common mistake: Learners often write 绒 (róng) as 戎 or 织, forgetting the silk radical 纟 on the left. Also keep 服 (fú) in second tone here, not the neutral tone it has in 衣服 (yīfu).
