A beret is a soft, round hat. A tight band sits on the head, and the top is loose and rather flat. There is no hard part sticking out at the front, so it is not like a baseball cap.

A beret貝雷帽 is a soft, round hat是一種柔軟的圓帽。A tight band一圈緊貼的帽緣 sits on the head戴在頭上 and而 the top is loose and rather flat帽頂則鬆鬆的、相當扁平。There is no hard part sticking out at the front前面沒有突出的硬帽簷 so所以 it is not like a baseball cap不像棒球帽。

People often make them from wool. In English, the hat still feels a bit French: painters, French street pictures, and some soldiers are the images that come to mind — though actually plenty of ordinary people just wear one because it is warm and easy.

People often make them from wool人們常用羊毛做它。In English在英文的印象裡 the hat still feels a bit French這頂帽子還是帶點法國味 : painters, French street pictures, and some soldiers畫家、法國街頭的畫面、還有一些軍人 are the images that come to mind是大家腦中會浮現的畫面 though actually不過其實 plenty of ordinary people just wear one很多普通人戴它 because it is warm and easy只是因為它保暖又方便。

Armies sometimes use the colour of the beret to show which group you belong to (a “green beret” is a kind of soldier). It is a normal noun for a real piece of clothing, not slang.
