*One pair of pants is referred to as a pantalón (in the singular form). This is different from English where we say "pants" (with an S) even when we are referring to one pair.
The words pantalón and calcetín lose their accents in the plural form because the stress naturally falls on the correct syllable after ES is added.
- pantalón - pantalones
- calcetín - calcetines
