							| What´s its name? 
 |  
							| Hi colleagues. Most of teachers in our country wear a long white article of clothing to keep their clothes clean ( from the dust of  chalk) I don �t know whether you put it on in your countries or not. I �d like to ask about its name. Can we call it an overall or coverall? Has it got any other name?   thanks. |  18 Nov 2010

							| That picture looks like a lab coat. But teachers don �t wear those here in the USA, only medical personnel or scientists. |  19 Nov 2010
