hood on a coat (countable)

A hood is the part of a coat or jacket that covers the head. You 'pull up', 'put up' or 'wear' a hood.

hood of a car (BrE: bonnet; AmE: hood)

-hood (suffix)

As a suffix, '-hood' forms nouns for a state or period, such as childhood and neighbourhood. Do not confuse these with the word 'hood'.

hood vs cap

A hood is attached to a coat; a cap is a separate hat. Hence 'hooded jacket' but 'baseball cap'.
