You cannot say “one trouser,” as “trousers” refers to a pair of pants. Similarly, “jeans,”“shorts,” and “pajamas” are always plural.There are also some nouns that are always plural because they refer to a part of the body that is typically found in pairs. For example, “...
EQUILIBRIUM TRANSMISSION DEVICE, ESPECIALLY IN RELATION TO TRANSMITTING DATA BY USING ONE PAIR OF OR PLURAL PAIRS OF CONDUCTORSPURPOSE: An equilibrium transmission device is provided to enable a transmitter to monitor voltages or currents or both voltages and currents injected into pairs of conductors,...
An achievable sum data rate with respect to each of available candidate transmission/reception modes may be calculated to select a transmission/reception mode of transmission/reception pairs repeatedly using radio resources. A transmission/reception mode to be applied may be selected from the candidate ...
in some sense, they should not. Thus Englishbinocularshas no singular, which is worth noting (that is, it is not predictable). True, there are other nouns denoting items consisting of two significant parts which behave similarly (spectacles,trousers…); indeed ...
Differences in duration that are significant in two-tailed pairwise t tests, as well as in two-tailed paired Wilcoxon tests ( p Ͻ .0001), are marked with asterisks. Figure 5 shows that there is no reliable difference in duration between the onset of the singular form and the word ...

for a constraint-based version of this intuition), this doesn’t account for the fact that the constant templatic shape of plurals is achieved by different affixation patterns, which are not completely predictable by phonological shape and/or gender, as shown by the quasi-minimal pairs in (2)...
(plural-dominant pairs).’Footnote15An illustration of such distributions is given in (17). In the CELEX database (Baayen et al.1995), the lexemesneckandlipare approximately matched: each occurs around 80 times per million words. Yet their distribution with respect to number is dramatically ...
