Cravats

Post 1

Hello, Tobes, I´ve been looking round your personal space and have seen the entry about 'cravats'. That´s a fine thing! I was also thinking about an entry about the cravats, but more about the smiley - smiley etymology and origin of these clothes. You know, the Spaniards and Portuguese also say 'corbata' and 'gravata' respectively, meanwhile the Russians use 'galstuk' from the German term 'Halstuch'. Germans themselves wear 'Krawatten'.

Just a little feedback to the nice entry about the good old cravat.
