    Oh, this gets more and more interesting. A type of weaving?

    And you would never use "napkin" for "nappie" right? If for some reason you needed to be very formal and tell someone that the baby needed changing, what word is the fancy-pants word for nappie?

    Thanks again.
    I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.

    We would just say "nappie" - no side to us in these matters!

    Thank you for these replies. You never know when you read things in a book if what the characters are saying are what real people would say in the same situation.
