"Your pants are not good."

Translation: तुम्हारी पतलून अच्छी नहीं है।

[sandrayojana]

Pantalón = पतलून = بنطال = pants. Isn't this amazing?

[tizerzert]

What I find very interesting is that " patloon" is a feminine word in hindi, when in arabic or even french it is masculine word, my guess is that in western and arab society, pants are worn primary by men, and i India it is part of the traditional outfits for men and women.

Exelent observation!!!

Are pants singular in Hindi? Why is it not हैं? Thanks

[John335027]

Yes it is singular. That a pair of pants, glasses, binoculars, tweezers, pliers, etc are always plural is really an English thing. I believe few or no other languages have this feature

[Mike88Fo]

Spanish does .... los pantalones, not quite as rare as you suspect.

[John335027]

Btw: What can है after नहीं not be omitted in this sentence?

[BluGo3]

it's optional, if you want to put it, you can.

[Deviji4]

It was marked incorrect without the hai. Have reported it.

[Vipul191758]

Why can't aachi and nahi not be swapped

[Sub2Pewds16]

wrong sentence structuring

[CathyIsAwesome]

What is the difference in meaning if I say "...nahi accha hai" instead of "...accha nahi hai."? Is nahi always placed just before hai?

[Aadvik2604]

Yes, because if you say nahi accha hai it is unnatural.
