Usage notes

Both (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Portuguese-derived ビロード (birōdo) and (deprecated template usage) [etyl] English-derived ベルベット (berubetto) appear to be in common use in modern Japanese. ベルベット seems to be somewhat more common.

The term ベルベット might also be used more often to refer to velvet made from silk.[3]
