I think the .replace(/y$/i, 'ie') replacement might be a bit too naive.

I don't have the time to look into this now, so help would be much appreciated.

When looking up irregular words, words are assumed to be in lower case. "shelf" does pluralize correctly as "shelves".

Since plur defaults to returning the plural version, it's handy when you don't have a specific count but just want to get the plural form. Right now, plur('word') returns (correctly) words, but TypeScript complains about this usage. Would be nice if the type defs added a single-param overload.

I'm happy to open a PR if this sounds reasonable to the maintainers.

Lint seems to be broken on latest xo version.

Tests are also broken due to the fact that torpedo was dropped from the irregular-plurals package.

For some reason, when I compile the Vite project and ran the preview command.
It throws an error in console and all components become non-functioning.

has method does not exist

irregularPlurals.has(word.toLowerCase())

So I am unsure what is it. At the moment, since we use only a single word for pluralization, I wrote my own tiny function that will just append s for plural meaning. For more complex checks and words, I'd like to use this package, but it's just not working.

ae384ba dropped support for Node v6.
I didn't expect such a change in a minor version bump.

As the module already knows how to convert singluar to plural, I wonder if the reverse operation, e.g. convert plural to singular can be supported without much effort. I'd certainly have use cases for it.

library does not handle negative counts currently.

plur('unicorn', -1);
//expected => 'unicorn'
//actual => 'unicorns'

Hi, is there a way to define custom rules?
E.g. pluralize feedback => feedback (just an example, not sure how plur actually handles this word right now)

Hi 👋🏻

when I pass 0 (zero) as count, plur returns the plural form instead of singular. Is it something wanted?

Let me know, I can open a PR

The term media, should not be changed, and remain media.

The version of uglify I'm using using doesn't support es6 and the node_modules is not compiles. So I'm getting error SyntaxError: Unexpected token: operator (>) [./~/plur/index.js:4,0] during a builds.

It leaves out the fact that the lib captures the difference between words ending with y that are preceded by consonants (puppies) and vowels (days).

It seems useful that this doesn't just work in English

Thanks for writing this package!

I'm getting the following error in Jest when tying to use this package. It looks like the issue may be because the 'irregular-plurals' dependency uses a "require" instead of "import" (even thought the error says "SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module", it's pointing to the "require" statement)

`Test suite failed to run

Jest encountered an unexpected token

Jest failed to parse a file. This happens e.g. when your code or its dependencies use non-standard JavaScript syntax, or when Jest is not configured to support such syntax.

Out of the box Jest supports Babel, which will be used to transform your files into valid JS based on your Babel configuration.

By default "node_modules" folder is ignored by transformers.

Here's what you can do:
 • If you are trying to use ECMAScript Modules, see https://jestjs.io/docs/ecmascript-modules for how to enable it.
 • If you are trying to use TypeScript, see https://jestjs.io/docs/getting-started#using-typescript
 • To have some of your "node_modules" files transformed, you can specify a custom "transformIgnorePatterns" in your config.
 • If you need a custom transformation specify a "transform" option in your config.
 • If you simply want to mock your non-JS modules (e.g. binary assets) you can stub them out with the "moduleNameMapper" config option.

You'll find more details and examples of these config options in the docs:
https://jestjs.io/docs/configuration
For information about custom transformations, see:
https://jestjs.io/docs/code-transformation
