irregular inflection: drive, drives

#1479

I encountered an incorrect inflection while using my :drives table. The problem originates from the dwarf->dwarves loaf->loaves rule.

require 'ActiveSupport' # version 2.2.2 => true 'drives'.singularize => "drife"

Please append the Inflector class as so: ActiveSupport::Inflector.inflections.irregular 'drive', 'drives'

    Rails hasn't accepted patches for particular inflections in years. But there's no need for a patch, since you can add your own inflections in your app. Just modify config/initializers/inflections.rb to include whatever changes you need.
