A rug is a piece of thick material that you put on a floor. It is similar to a carpet, but it covers a smaller area. It can be made of wool, cotton, jute, or silk. It usually has a border design. It can also be made from a treated animal skin. Rugs are used in homes and offices. They help protect the floor from cold and heat. They can also help catch dirt and other debris. This keeps the floors and carpeting cleaner longer.
A carpet is a larger piece of fabric that covers the entire floor. It can be made from wool, cotton, jute, or synthetic materials. It has a design on the surface and can be used in rooms with or without furniture. Carpets are often used in bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways. They are also used in businesses to add color and texture to flat areas.
The word rug can also be used to mean something that is a cover or a cloth that you use as a blanket. In the past, people would wear rugs to keep themselves warm. People still use rugs to keep themselves warm today. They are especially common in countries with cold weather.
A rug is a great addition to any room. It makes the room quieter because it reduces the noise made by shoes and other items hitting the floor. This is a great benefit for families and anyone with downstairs neighbors. It also helps reduce echoes and unwanted sounds in the room.
