This is is an experimental feature. Please report any issues.A 'Krawatte' is a German noun that refers to a necktie in English. It is a long, narrow piece of cloth that is worn around the neck and tied in a knot at the front. Neckties are commonly worn as part of formal or professional attire, such as with suits or dress shirts.
In German culture, wearing a 'Krawatte' is often seen as a symbol of professionalism and sophistication. It is commonly worn by men in various settings, including business meetings, weddings, and formal events. The style and design of a necktie can vary greatly, ranging from solid colors to patterns and prints.
The word 'Krawatte' is derived from the French word 'cravate', which originally referred to a type of scarf worn by Croatian soldiers in the 17th century. Over time, the cravat evolved into the modern necktie that we know today. In German, 'Krawatte' is the most common term used to describe this accessory.
