undersuit

名词 n.

英文释义

名词 n.
  1. A soft undergarment worn by divers and astronauts.
    — If you plan to dive all year round in the UK, you'll need a drysuit rather than a wetsuit. It won't let in water (a wetsuit traps a layer of water against the skin), but doesn't keep you warm, so you need a neoprene or membrane undersuit, too.
  2. Any suit worn under another suit; a suit of underclothes.
