Ein Kleidungsstück für die Beine, mit zwei getrennten Teilen, das man über Unterwäsche trägt.
The German word "Hose" is a noun that means "trousers" or "pants". It generally refers to the outer garment worn on the lower body, covering both legs and extending from the waist to the ankles.
Similar words in German include "Hosen" (the plural form of Hose, meaning trousers in general) and "Beinkleid" (a more formal term for leg wear).
While "Hose" specifically indicates the clothing item itself, "Hosen" simply refers to multiple pairs of trousers, and "Beinkleid" is less commonly used and often sounds a bit old-fashioned or formal.
