草くさ摺ずり

noun

tassets; armored skirt

Refers to the protective skirt-like flaps hanging from the waist of traditional Japanese armor. The second gloss 'vegetable dye' is a rare, historical meaning; the word is overwhelmingly used for the armor part.

• 鎧よろいの草くさ摺ずりが歩あるくたびに揺ゆれた。

  The tassets of the armor swayed with every step.

• 博はく物ぶつ館かんで草くさ摺ずりの実じつ物ぶつを見みた。

  I saw real tassets at the museum.
