Pronunciation: [ɹˈaɡlənd] (IPA) 
The spelling of the word "ragland" is often confused with "raglan." The correct pronunciation of "ragland" is /ˈræɡ.lənd/ with emphasis on the first syllable. The word refers to a type of sleeve that extends in one piece to the collar, creating a diagonal seam from the underarm to the neckline. It is commonly used in clothing, especially in jackets and coats. To remember the spelling, think of the word "rag" combined with "land."
The word "Raglan" or "Raglan" is derived from the name of FitzRoy James Henry Somerset, 1st Baron Raglan (1788–1855), a British soldier who served in the Napoleonic Wars and later became the Commander-in-Chief of the British Army during the Crimean War.
Lord Raglan was known for wearing a type of coat that had a characteristic sleeve extending in one piece to the collar instead of separate shoulder and sleeve pieces. This design came to be known as the "Raglan sleeve", which eventually led to the term "Raglan" being used to describe any garment or style featuring this particular sleeve construction. The term "Raglan" is primarily used in the context of clothing, particularly in reference to sleeves, sweaters, or coats with this distinctive cut.
