The pronunciation of umbrella is: [ yǔ sǎn ]

Umbrella is a tool that provides a cool environment or shelters rain and snow.

The English word umbrella comes from the Latin word umbra, which means sunshade or shade. The oldest folding umbrella may be the oil-paper umbrella that gradually took shape in China. This umbrella was used until the Republic of China.

Umbrellas are usually made from stretchable fabric, other materials that can be used as a frame, and wire. When used, it is lifted by hand. Although the main purpose of the umbrella when it was first invented was to protect it from rain on rainy days, it is now often used to block sunlight.
