A boot covers the foot and usually reaches the ankle or higher.
The idea
Use a boot for one and boots for more than one; a pair of boots has two.
Examples
- Her boots are covered in mud.
- He wears boots at the farm.
- This boot has a thick sole.
- We need waterproof boots for the rain.
- Please leave your boots outside.
- The worker bought a new pair of boots.
