SYNOPSIS

  use Lingua::PT::Inflect;

  $plural = sing2plural('programador')   # now holds 'programadores'

DESCRIPTION

Converts Portuguese words from singular to plural. There may be some special cases that will fail (words ending in -ão or -s might fail, as many special cases are yet to be prevented; anyone volunteering to look at a huge list of words?)

TO DO

• Several words are exceptions to the rules; there is a file of those words that need to be checked.
