sunglasses
This noun is a plurale tantum, meaning it exists only in the plural form and has no singular counterpart. It refers to a single object consisting of two lenses, similar to "scissors" or "pants."
Because it is grammatically plural, it requires a plural verb (e.g., "these sunglasses are") rather than a singular one. To refer to a single unit, the partitive phrase "a pair of" must be used (e.g., "a pair of sunglasses").
