うーん、古いシミなので、完全には落ちないかもしれません。
うーん、ふるいしみなので、かんぜんにはおちないかもしれません。
Hmm, since it's an old stain, it might not come out completely.
Gesture & etiquette
Gently point to the stain with your index finger without touching the delicate fabric too hard.
Do not pull or scratch the fabric while pointing at the stain, as vintage fabrics can be extremely fragile.
