khalat
Where it comes from
Borrowed from Classical Persian خِلْعَت (xil'at).
noun khalats · kellaut · khelaut · khilat · killaut · killut
- A type of native gown worn in parts of Central Asia, historically awarded as a robe of honor. Russian faces and dress have almost entirely disappeared and in their places are the enormous fur caps, long khalats, daggers and pistols of the swarthy Daghestan mountaineers and the black stupid faces of the Kalmuck Tartars.
- A long, close-fitting coat with shawl collars and pockets, worn by Ashkenazi Jewish men in Eastern Europe until the early 20th century
