"Pajamas are clothes too."

Translation: A pizsamák is ruhák.

[mizinamo]

Do I understand correctly that

• ruha = dress (long single-piece garment usually worn by women)
• ruhák = dresses (plural of above) or clothes in general (e.g. T-shirts, shirts, pants, dresses, skirts, .....)

?

(Which would be similar to German: Kleid = dress; Kleider = dresses / clothes.)

Or can singular ruha also mean "an article of clothing"?

[Shamarth]

Yes to your last question.

Milyen ruha van rajtad? -- What are you wearing? / What kind of dress are you wearing?

[mizinamo]

I see; thank you!

[vvsey]

You can also say "ruhadarab" for "an article of clothing".
"Darab" is "piece". So, a piece of clothing.

Why is pajamas pluralized? I thought pairs of clothing were always singular in Hungarian?

[Kati673185]

a pizsama ruha is - it is totally correct

[Harold77079]

Why A -- there is no the in the English sentence

[-Morbid-Corvid-]

According to my Hungarian wife, in Hungarian you include "a/az" when you are talking about a category of things. You aren't referring just some pajamas, you're referring to pajamas in general.

Why this above translation in pluralis form when the answer in the exercise is in singularis "A pzisama is ruha" and no other option was given? It seems that both are correct.
