"This pair of pants is bigger than that one."

Translation: 这条裤子比那条大。

"pants", i live in england where that means "underwear"...

[fallingleaf_271]

Here on Duolingo they teach American English, so I would assume they mean the American meaning of 'pants'.

In Brit English, is "pants" short for "underpants"?

The sentence said "pair" so I though "双", not "条", yet "这双裤子比那双大" was not accepted.

The counter for pants is 条。So a "pair of pants" is 一条裤子

双 is the counter for "a pair of" shoes, socks, chopsticks etcetera
