<p>It's singular.</p>
<p><b>pa'vo' pagh leghlu'</b><i> The room has no view.</i> (CK)<br>
If <b>pagh</b> were plural, the verb would be <b>luleghlu'.</b></p>
<p><b>SaqSubDaq pagh Qoylu'</b><i> In the Saq'sub all is quiet</i>
(paq'batlh)<br>
Not <b>luQoylu'.</b></p>
<p><b>SanDaj SaH pagh</b><i> [And] no one cared about its fate.</i>
(paq'batlh)<br>
<b>SanDaj</b> is definitely singular here (the earth's [ground's]
fate), and it isn't <b>luSaH.</b></p>
<p><b>qeylIS lIjlaHbogh pagh</b><i> Kahless the unforgettable</i>
(paq'batlh)<br>
Not <b>lulIjlaHbogh.</b><br>
