Plurals
By default, if the entry is singular only the singular form is annotated. If the entry is plural, only the plural is annotated.
If you want to include both singular and plural forms of a word, you need to enable plurals.
Syntax
#generalize:plural <true/false>
Default: If the entry is singular only the singular form is annotated. If the entry is plural, only the plural is annotated.
Clear Plurals:
#clear generalize: plural
Regular and irregular plurals
Sintelix can detect both regular and irregular plural forms. For example, people has two plural forms: persons and people, both detected when the plural generalization is activated.
When you want to cancel the plural, you can use the clear command.
