Erro comum:
Learners often treat “pantyhose” as a normal countable noun and say *a pantyhose* or *two pantyhoses*. In standard English, it is usually a plural-only noun: say *a pair of pantyhose* and *two pairs of pantyhose*. Another common confusion is between American English “pantyhose” and British English “tights”; they refer to similar garments, but “pantyhose” is much more common in North American English.
