Singaporean Mandarin

@The dog2 I think here we're not talking about 被(子), which is "quilt", but a kind of towel-like thing, maybe a little thicker, used for covering someone when sleeping. It's kind of hard to distinguish these for me as well, but the sources seem to distinguish these. — justin(r)leung _{{ (t...) | c=› }} 21:52, 4 November 2020 (UTC)

@Justinrleung: In Singapore, we just use 被 for blanket, even for towel-like things. For carpets or rugs, the word would be 地毯. The dog2 (talk) 22:00, 4 November 2020 (UTC)

@The dog2: Alright, I'll defer to your judgment then. — justin(r)leung _{{ (t...) | c=› }} 23:15, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
