Fine. So, if it's not there, we don't translate the word as plural.

If the Persian word is singular, the English word needs to be singular.
If the Persian word is plural, the English word needs to be plural.

Is that clear enough?

You just wrote both of them in English, so yes, we can use both "a new glove" and "new gloves" in English.

The next question, however, is (under typical circumstances) "What are you going to do with just one glove? Won't your other hand get cold?"
