Bed sheets are the first layer that go on a mattress, usually you have a fitted sheet that has elastic so it fits your bed tightly. and a top sheet that matches along with pillowcases. You sleep on top of the fitted sheet and under the top sheet. On top of the top sheet would be a blanket or comforter. A blanket is usually one layer and can be small or large, you can put it on your bed or the couch etc. A comforter goes on top of your fitted sheet and is just for your bed, its usually large and warm with pockets of down feathers or some other material to keep you extra warm. Think heavy thick blanket with filling. You can get "duvet covers" to cover a comforter because they're very hard to wash.

A bedspread is pretty much a comforter but maybe thinner and less practical, usually made to be prettier/decorative.

@whatevswhatevs Thanks!
in real life, most people have only one layer over the fitted sheet.(unless you go to a hotel)

is it a top sheet? or a comforter/bedspread?

@luckyall It also just depends on the climate where you live. I live in Hawaii where its very warm all year so most people only sleep with a top sheet, which comes with your sheets when you buy them. It would be very thin and usually cotton/the same material as your fitted sheet. I've visited places where it was snowing and it went top sheet, blanket between (usually a fuzzy or thermal blanket) and comforter on top. If the top layer isn't the same material as the fitted sheet than it would be a blanket or comforter.

@whatevswhatevs oh, i see!
then, which term do people usually use when they just want to refer to the bedding that goes on top of you without thinking hard?(when the exact term isn't important)

for example, let's suppose an English teacher teaches a foriegner about beds.
Teacher- "Beds are made up of frame, mattress, sheet that covers the mattress, pillow and ( )."

what would be said in the blank?
