My school shirt

Can I say,

My school shirt was wet when it was raining.

P/s: Are there same? school shirt = school uniform?

My school shirt was wet when it was raining. ==> This would be a more likely sentence: My school shirt got wet when it was raining. A uniform of any kind is normally an entire outfit -- not just a shirt.

You can but I'm not sure it means what you want it to mean.

My school shirt was wet when it was raining means it was (happened to be) wet when it was (happened to be) raining.

If you mean that it was wet by the rain say It got wet when it was raining.

A shirt can be part of school uniform, but school uniform is the combination of articles of clothing which are compulsor
