Water resistant means that the item will 'resist' rain but is not totally water protected. Waterproof means that water will not permeate through the material, for example if you are wearing 'oilskins'.
In Great Britain, a coat that can withstand the rain and stop you from getting wet is known as 'waterproof'. The word proof is added onto the end of a number of other words to denote a material that can withstand something, for example: Heatproof, waterproof, childproof.
"Raincoat" is a coat made from a material that is waterproof so when you wear it protects your clothes from the rain.
Eg: Today I will bring my raincoat.

Eg: I'm glad I brought my rain mac today because I got the court in the storm.

例文:Today I will bring my raincoat.
