Plural Nouns with Ningun

Question

Hola SilviaThank you for your previous explanation regarding "gafas" used in the plural form with a singular object. Please could you provide more examples of other nouns which follow this rule. Thank you!

Hola E. L.
You're welcome! Another example is prismáticos (binoculars), which is normally used in the plural even when referring to a single object.
For example:
Ningunos prismáticos funcionan bien. (None of the binoculars work properly.)
As with gafas, we use ningunos because the noun is grammatically plural, even though it can refer to a single object.
Other nouns, such as tijeras and pantalones, can also refer to a single object in their plural form, although they have commonly used singular forms too.
Un saludo
Silvia
