singulars

Not plural versions

Singulars is the plural of singular—grammatical forms denoting one of something, as opposed to plurals.

In grammar instruction, students learn to distinguish singulars from plurals: The singulars "child" and "mouse" become "children" and "mice" in the plural.

The word also refers to things that are unique or exceptional: These paintings are singulars in his otherwise conventional body of work.
