C-string (clothing) : ウィキペディア英語版
Thong (clothing)

The thong is a garment generally worn as either underwear or as a swimsuit in some countries. It may also be worn for traditional ceremonies or competitions, such as sumo wrestling.
Viewed from the front, the thong typically resembles a bikini bottom, but at the back the material is reduced to a minimum. Thongs are almost always designed to cover the genitals, pubic hair, anus, and perineum, and leave part or most of the buttocks uncovered. The back of the garment typically consists of a thin waistband and a thin strip of material, designed to be worn between the buttocks, that connects the middle of the waistband with the bottom front of the garment. It is also used as a descriptive term in other types of garment, such as a bodysuit, bodystocking, leotard, or one-piece swimsuit in the context, "thong backed."
One type of thong is the G-string, the back of which consists only of a (typically elasticized) string.〔Hydinger, Liss "(Listen up, guys, here's a lingerie lingo lesson )", ''Daily News of Los Angeles'', 6 February 1992〕 The two terms ''G-string'' and ''thong'' are often used interchangeably; however, they can refer to distinct pieces of clothing. Thongs come in a variety of styles depending on the thickness, material, or type of the rear portion of fabric and are available for both men and women throughout most of the world.
== Nomenclature ==
The origin of the word ''thong'' in the English language is from Old English ''thwong'', a flexible leather cord.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Merriam-Webster online dictionary )
Many languages borrow the English word ''string'' to refer to this type of underwear, usually without the ''G''. Another common name is ''tanga'' (or sometimes ''string tanga''), especially in the German ''Tanga''. A frequent metaphor, especially in Brazil, is dental floss; in Brazil a thong is called ''fio dental'' (Portuguese for dental floss); in English, the term "Butt floss" is sometimes used. In Lithuanian it is "siaurikės" ("narrows"), Italian "perizoma" or "tanga", in Turkish "ipli külot" ("stringed underpants"), and in Bulgarian as "prashka" (), which means a slingshot. In Israel the thong, mostly the G-string, is called ''Khutini'' (), from the word Khut, which means String. Similarly, in Iran, it is called "Shortbandi" () in which "short" (from English: Shorts) means "briefs" and "bandi" means "with a string". A Puerto-Rican Spanish slang term, used by Reggaeton artists, is ''gistro''. Australians often colloquially refer to the ''G-string'' as a ''g-banger'' or simply ''banger''.
Some names for the thong reference the bareness of the buttocks, as seen in the Spanish word ''colaless'' (the origin is probably connected to the term topless but in reference to ''cola'', colloquial term for butt in South American Spanish), and in other names the "T"-like shape of the back is highlighted. In Chinese, the T-back is commonly called ''dingziku'' (丁字褲/丁字裤) which literally means ''丁 character pants'' (or roughly, ''T-letter pants''). In Korean, it is called 티팬티 (''T panty''). However, there are several usages of the term T-back in English as well (e.g., Children's literature author E. L. Konigsburg's ''T-backs, T-shirts, Coat and Suit'').
