The 'pantalones' were 2 separate tubes, one used for each leg. Someone got the bright idea of sewing them together and now you had a pair of pant(alones)s

I dont know. When you use a broom why isnt it called brooming? If you use a sweeper, its called sweeping, if you use a rake you are rakeing. Good question
And to the guy who said a shirt has 3 holes....it has 4 duh you have a torso, head and two arms
