Definition & Bedeutung von "bib"

What is a "bib"?

A bib is a piece of clothing worn to protect clothing from food or drink spills, particularly for infants and young children. They are designed to be worn over the front of the body and are typically made from soft, absorbent materials such as cotton or terry cloth. Bibs can have various closure mechanisms, including ties, snaps, or Velcro, to keep them securely fastened around the neck. Some bibs also come with pockets at the bottom to catch any fallen food. In addition to being used for infants and young children, bibs can also be used by adults during messy activities such as cooking or painting to protect their clothing from stains.
