regular inflection for nouns and verbs #12

Open jaumeortola opened 7 months ago

jaumeortola commented 7 months ago

This is my proposal to generate the inflection of regular nouns and verbs: https://github.com/languagetool-org/english-pos-dict/blob/main/src-dict/inflection.py

This is not critical in any case. Everything that is not defined as a regular inflection will be treated as irregular. That means that the irregular forms have to be written explicitly. Cases like potato/potatoes, life/lives are not considered regular now, but they could be. It seems better if we don't consider them regular.

That's all we need. Some small details could change when we check the whole dictionary. Does it look good to you? @AzadehSafakish

I'm not seeing anything that could be an issue, so it should be ok ✅

Agreed.
