"hand down" 물려주다

예문: I handed down my clothes and shoes to my younger sister.

나의 옷과 신발을 나의 여동생에게 물려주었다.

*"hand-me-downs" (명사): (특히 가족한테) 물려 받은 옷, 신발등

Friend 1: Hey, is that a new sweater? Where did you get it?

Friend 1: You mean, she handed down the sweater to you? But, it looks brand new.

Friend 2: Actually, she bought it on Black Friday. But she got the wrong size.

Friend 1: Lucky you! It really looks nice on you. Fits perfectly!

Friend 2: Thanks. Now, all I need are matching pants.

*방송에서 설명을 정확히 못해드린 부분: Friend 1 는 처음에 Friend 2의 언니가 handed down 해준 옷으로 생각하고 있었습니다

(Friend 1 used to be my sister's라고 해서). 근데 물려받은 옷이 아니라
