If it helps, you can note what I did in the 2nd paragraph where I correctly used pajama in the singular by specifying that it was "a pajama onesie," thus removing it from the lazy pants-top pajama set context that the term "pajamas" was originally supposed to refer to.

Again, if we are referring to the onesies being used here, calling it "a pajama onesie" is the most correct thing to say, but the laziness of the English language makes plural uses very much acceptable and removes the necessity to add in the term "onesie" everywhere you are talking about them so long as you turn it into a plural and start referring to it as though it was a pants-top set even though it's one item of clothing (as little sense as that makes when you really stop to think about it.)

Pajamas are still tripping you up. I corrected this one. Once again, it is not just adding an "s" to the end, the word "pajamas" is treated as plural in every way, thus "a pajamas" is not correct. (You did that one again.) Jemini (talk) 00:47, 4 December 2017 (CET)
In my defense, I wrote this on november 5, well before you first pointed out all the errors I've made with those poor pajamas; I just hadn't found them to correct them. I do hope the one I wrote today is free of pajamas-related errors. In any event, thanks for fixing it for me, for some reason when I made a project wide search for the term "pajama/s" I didn't detected those were errors. --Tod Naturlich (talk) 00:58, 4 December 2017 (CET)
