Esperanto Rules¶
Esperanto pluralization and singularization rules.
This module defines the complete set of Esperanto pluralization
rules used by pluralio. It is imported automatically when
import pluralio is executed, which triggers the registration
of the eo language in the global registry.
Esperanto has the simplest pluralization system of any language:
every noun takes -j to form the plural, and the accusative
case adds -n after the plural marker. There are no irregulars,
no gender, and no exceptions.
- Rules:
libro→libroj(singular → plural, addj)libroj→libro(plural → singular, removej)libron→librojn(accusative singular → accusative plural)librojn→libron(accusative plural → accusative singular)
Uncountable words: pronouns and correlatives that do not take
plural (mi, vi, li, ŝi, ĝi, ni, ili,
oni, si).
