Lençol
Lençol is a Portuguese word that translates to "sheet" in English. It most commonly refers to a bed sheet, a large piece of fabric used as bedding. Bed sheets are typically placed on top of a mattress and underneath a blanket or duvet. They serve to protect the mattress from body oils and sweat, and to provide a comfortable surface for sleeping. Lençóis can be made from various materials, including cotton, linen, silk, and synthetic blends, each offering different levels of softness, breathability, and durability. The size of a lençol is determined by the size of the bed, with common categories including twin, full, queen, and king.
Beyond bed sheets, the term "lençol" can also be used in other contexts. In geology, "lençol freático"
