I would counsel you not to worry about it. When there is a single standard way of saying something in each of the languages in question, you just go with what's accepted, because the word being left out (or other discrepancy) is immaterial.

Great. I'm glad it was of assistance.
Note from asker:
Thank you David. Exactly, therefore I am not sure how to put it in English.
Thank you , its very kind of you. My question remains though. In case of an agreement/application clause would you just put it as it is? "The Singular" or "In the singular". I still need to make it somehow presentable :)
There we go! Thank you so much David, I just wasn't sure. It was SUPER helpful. I really appreciate.

agree Textpertise : In English, both U.S. and U.K., one would say "in the singular" and not "in the singular form".

Peer comment(s):

agree Itzik Greenvald Mivtach : this is way better than "in the singular"; actually, the word form is quite important here
