cloths
USKLAWTHS/klɔθs/UKKLOTHS/klɒθs/
- 1Plural of cloth.
The polishing cloths left the silverware gleaming.
Damp cloths were draped over the chairs to keep the dust off.
Note
A plural that only the countable uses of cloth can take: separate pieces put to a purpose, such as polishing cloths or damp cloths over the furniture, or distinct kinds of fabric. Fabric as a material stays uncountable, so a coat is made of cloth, not of cloths. Keep it apart from clothes, the irregular plural that names garments worn on the body.
