Doff for Dummies

Hey there! So, "doff" is a rather old-fashioned word, but it's still good to know what it means! Basically, when you "doff" something, you're taking it off or removing it. You might "doff" your hat to someone as a sign of respect, or "doff" your coat when you come inside on a cold day. It's kind of like the opposite of "don," which means to put something on.

There's also a second meaning to "doff," which is to get rid of or discard something, especially an item of clothing. So, for example, you might "doff" your coat and then "doff" it into the closet. Got it? It's like you're saying, "I'm done with this for now, I don't need it anymore."

So, the word "doff" can mean either to take off or remove something, like a hat or coat, as a sign of respect or because you don't need it, or to get rid of or discard something. It's a bit of an old-fashioned word, but it's still really useful to know!

I hope that makes sense! Let me know if you have any questions.
