LEGO is an association of the words "leg" and "godt", which directly translates to the words "play" and "well". Therefore, it is LEGO and not Legos as is often referred.

Have a great day! 🇩🇰

If we treated loanwords with the same rules as their origin language, we'd say "pizze" instead of "pizzas" and not pluralize Japanese words like "futon" or "tsunami".
