- 1粗麻布、麻袋布（英式；美式常說 burlap。台灣日常就說「麻布」或「麻袋布」）
Hessian, in this sense, is a thick, rough cloth, usually made from or — the scratchy stuff used for sacks, carpet backing, and wrapping plants. It is mainly a British word for that cloth; American English more often says burlap. Though actually, Hessian is also an old name for a person from Hesse, a region in Germany (British armies once hired Hessian soldiers), but the entry you are learning here is the cloth. The cloth name comes from the place: cloth linked to Hesse. You will see it in , gardening, and British crafts, not in fashion talk.
組成Hesse (a region in Germany) + -ian (of or from that place).
