Aliasing socks_(marking) → socks_(markings)
Link to alias

Reason:

Judging how the markings implication works, it might be better to flip the tags for consistency's sake. Otherwise, the alias can be reversed as well.

Also, gloves_(marking) -> gloves_(markings), same reason as above, but it already has the alias for the reverse set. Hence why I say it can be flipped, but all the rest are plural.

sounds wrong to my ear. I can't explain why.

-1. Reverse it.

Our '*_markings' tags have such construction to denote that there are marks of a specific shape or placement; our '*_(marking)' tags on another hand, have such construction because the "(marking)" excerpt is an explication appositive which inform that (for example) these "socks" aren't actual clothing, but a marking on the character's body.

... in English? Not to sound rude, but I don't understand what you said and (since then) am under the impression that we try to use plural when it can exist appropriately.

So, could you, or another, simplify what you said?

In 'orange (fruit)', "(fruit)" acts similarly to an adjective, specifying that we are talking about the fruit orange; and adjectives rarely get plural.
Sincerely, would you say 'fruits orange'? If no, then don't say 'orange (fruits)' as well. Here the same principle applies.
