    「garment」是正式的「單一一件衣服」——一件外套、一件毛衣、一件洋裝，都可以叫 a garment。核心畫面可以想成「一件穿在身上的東西」；平常聊天多半說 clothes（複數）或 a piece of clothing。garment 跟 clothes、clothing 容易搞混——clothes 用在日常「衣服」（My clothes are dirty）；clothing 多半不可數、談一大類或大量衣物（warm clothing）；garment 可數，常出現在成衣產業：garment industry、garment factory。

core核心畫面

Picture a single item hanging on a rail in a factory or a shop's stock room — one shirt, one coat, counted as one unit. Garment is the counting word for clothing: it treats a piece of clothing as an object that can be made, inspected, priced, and shipped, which is why it lives mostly in the language of the clothing trade.

可以想成：工廠或店家倉庫的架子上掛著一件——一件襯衫、一件外套，被當成「一個單位」在數。garment 是把衣服當成物件來看的說法：可以生產、檢查、標價、出貨。也因為這樣，它幾乎都出現在成衣業與正式的書面語裡。
