Are You Still Making This Common Grammar Mistake with “Trousers”?
Have you ever said “My trousers has gators” or “I want to put gators on my trousers”? In standard English, these expressions are incorrect. “Gator” is short for “alligator,” or sometimes used for a crocodile‐skin texture. It never describes the crease on trousers. Try these correct alternatives: 1. My trousers have a sharp crease. 2. Our trousers have sharp creases. 3. I want the crease of my trousers to be sharp. A crease is the line or ridge on fabric formed when it is folded and ironed. I hope you have learned something useful today!
