Iwáxa Tui

Pronunciation

IPA: /ˈju.i/^[?] [ˈju.i]

Noun

yui

item of clothing; an item formed from the intertwining of filaments and meant to be worn on a body.
Makiyui imai!
I see a piece of clothes I want! (Childish)

Usage notes

Yui is typically only used for items that are not in wear at the time of speaking. Entire outfits are rarely described as yui or its plural form since they are constructed with imagining what they would look like when worn in mind. Yui is, however, sometimes used by the upper class to describe the outfits or clothes in wear of the lower class as belittlement.
