Usage Note
Grembiule is masculine despite ending in -e, so it is il grembiule, i grembiuli. It refers both to a kitchen apron and to the school pinafore (grembiule scolastico) that Italian schoolchildren traditionally wear — a cultural detail with no direct English equivalent. The diminutive grembiulino is used for a small child's smock.
Examples
"Ogni bagno italiano ha il bidet."
