A Python library that accurately generates English plurals, singular nouns, ordinals, indefinite articles, present participles, and word-based representations of numbers. It provides an engine with methods for grammatical inflection limited to the English language.

Use cases

  • convert numbers to words in python
  • generate plural forms of english nouns
  • choose a or an correctly before a word
  • convert cardinal numbers to ordinals like 1st 2nd 3rd
  • build grammatically correct sentences with dynamic counts
  • singularize plural nouns

When to choose

  • you need accurate English pluralization or singularization in Python
  • you want to spell out numbers as words in generated text
  • you need correct indefinite articles (a/an) or ordinals programmatically

When to avoid

  • you need inflection for languages other than English
  • you need full natural language parsing or generation beyond word inflection
