go-pluralize

Pluralize and singularize any word

Acknowledgements

The go-pluralize module is the Golang adaptation of the great work from Blake Embrey and other contributors who created and maintain the NPM JavaScript pluralize package. The originating Javascript implementation can be found on https://github.com/blakeembrey/pluralize

Without their great work this module would have taken a lot more effort, thank you all!
