I bought a new trouser today (correct the sentence)
Answer:
I bought a new pair of trousers today.
- The word 'trousers' is a plural noun. So we never use 'a trousers' or 'trouser'.
trouser => wrong usage
'a pair of trousers' => correct usage.
- Trousers are defined as a piece of clothing that covers the body from the waist downwards.
- It covers each leg separately.
- we use the plural form of the verb with 'trousers'.
For example, His trousers were/are short.
- we use the singular form of the verb with 'a pair of trousers'
For example, there is a new pair of trousers in his bag.
