A handkerchief, often referred to as a hanky, is commonly used as a personal hygienic tool for blowing your nose or wiping your face or hands. Usually carried in a pocket or purse, they typically are made from a thin, square piece of fabric that is hemmed at the edges. Handkerchiefs are also worn as decorative accessories carried in a suit pocket for example and referred to as a pocket square or pocket handkerchief.
The word kerchief was common before people used the word handkerchief. The term comes from two French words couvrir and chef which means “to cover” and “head”. During the Middle Ages kerchiefs were used as head coverings while in ancient Greece and Rome, handkerchiefs were used as they are in present times. Europeans began carrying them in the 16th century to wipe their noses and foreheads. “Hand” was added to kerchief, and hence the word handkerchief was born.
