Pyjamas

Pyjamas or Pajamas (American English) are garments designed to be worn in bed, for those who do not prefer to sleep nude. Pyjamas are usually two-piece garments but may be one-piece garments (see one-piece pyjamas).

The word "pyjama" came originally from the Hindi word pajama, derived from the Persian words for "leg garment".
