swimsuit
UK: ˈswɪmsuːt | US: ˈswɪmsuːt
n. a garment worn for swimming, typically consisting of a one-piece or two-piece design.
The word "swimsuit" is a compound noun formed by combining "swim" (from Old English swimman, meaning "to move through water") and "suit" (from Old French suite, meaning "a set of garments"). The term emerged in the early 20th century as swimming became a popular recreational activity, requiring specialized clothing. The logic is straightforward: a "suit" designed for "swimming."
