## Package edu.northwestern.at.morphadorner.corpuslinguistics.inflector.pluralizer Description

### Pluralizer.

A pluralizer finds plural forms of nouns and pronouns given a singular form.

All MorphAdorner pluralizers must implement the `Pluralizer` interface. The `PluralizerFactory` provides the mechanism for instantiating a default or specified instance of a pluralizer implementation.

MorphAdorner provides two pluralizers.

- A noop pluralizer, which does nothing.
- An English language pluralizer.

The English language pluralizer is the default pluralizer.

Pluralizers may be used standalone or instantiated and invoked by an `Inflector`.
