衣服！这是全世界我最喜欢的话题！我了解所有时装设计师，我会尝试不同的风格……我喜欢衣服！我们来谈谈我的衣服吧。

Smalls?! Do you think my clothes are too small for me? Are you calling me fat?
小？你觉得我穿的衣服太小了？你是说我胖吗？
No, Li. You look fine.’Smalls’ is a word we use for underwear.
不是，莉。你身材不错。Smalls指的是内衣。

内衣。所以我们要谈女性内裤、男性内裤、袜子还有女性内衣……

Undies. That’s easy to remember because it refers to what we wear under our clothes — undies.

Two easy words to remember when you talk about underwear.And remember they are always plural.
