In Southern American English (Appalachian) '''toboggan''' refers to a type of hat. This is also called a sock toboggan, boggan, or boggan cap. This type of hat is also referred to by other names: knit hat or knit cap, sock cap or stocking cap, watch cap, [[tuque]], skull cap or sometimes as a ski cap. A [[beanie]] is a similar type of hat, and although toboggan and beanie typically refer to synonymous items in most regions '''(like the Dover/New Philadelphia region of Ohio)''', a beanie is normally more rigid tight fitting hat, worn even outside of winter. In other dialects of English, "toboggan" is used to describe a sled rather than the slang derivative of the word as outlined above. To most people, the definition of a "toboggan" is a Sled made of wood planks that are curved up at the nose. |
