I looked it up afterward (I remembered that it's a Slavic word for a stringed 
instrument) and found that Serbo-Croatian gusle have only one string, so why 
is the word plural? Czech housle (violin) and Russian gusli have multiple 
strings.

Czech for door (dveře) is plural, though the Russian cognate is not. How come?
