What is another word for hanky?
Pronunciation: [hˈaŋki] (IPA) 
Hanky is a small, usually square piece of cloth that is used for wiping the nose or face. Although hanky is a widely recognized term, there are several synonyms that can be used in its place. A handkerchief, for example, is a more formal term for a hanky and is often used in dressier settings. A tissue is another common synonym, although it is typically made of paper rather than cloth. A facecloth or washcloth can also be used as a hanky, although they are larger and typically used for washing the face or body rather than just wiping away sweat or mucus. Regardless of the term used, having a means of cleaning one's face and nose is always helpful.
