A small JavaScript library that pluralizes or singularizes English words based on a count, using an ordered list of predefined rules. It supports custom plural, singular, irregular, and uncountable rules, and works in Node, AMD, and browser environments.

Use cases

• pluralize a word based on a count in JavaScript
• singularize English words in Node.js
• display '1 test' vs '5 tests' with correct grammar
• add custom pluralization rules for domain-specific words
• check whether a word looks singular or plural
• handle uncountable nouns like 'paper' in generated text

When to choose

• you need grammatically correct plural/singular forms for dynamic user-facing text
• you want a tiny, dependency-free utility usable in Node or the browser
• you need to extend inflection rules for irregular or domain-specific vocabulary

When to avoid

• your word list is known ahead of time and a simple ternary would suffice
• you need full morphological analysis or non-English inflection
• you need a general NLP toolkit rather than a single utility
