Meaning: This noun refers to a round, flat hat made of soft material.
Origin: This cap was originally worn by Basque (a European ethnic group) peasants. Since 1827 it has been referred to as a fashionable accessory, and is derived from the French word beret, which, in turn, is from an older French word berret, meaning cap. It is pronounced beh-ray.
Usage: She wore a beret, set slightly off-centre.
