Inflector doesn't pick up inflections
Reported by Bart Zonneveld | June 5th, 2008 @ 09:00 AM
I found out that 'series'.singularize returns 'series' instead of 'serie', although I specified it in the inflections initializer.
Steps to reproduce:
- create rails app
- freeze rails to edge
- add inflect.irregular 'serie', 'series' to inflections initializer
- fire up the console:
Loading development environment (Rails 2.1.0)
>> 'series'.singularize
=> "series"
>> Serie.class_name
=> "Series"

I added 'serie' => 'series' to the Irregularities in inflector_test_cases.rb and got this as test result:
1) Failure:
test_irregularity_between_serie_and_series(InflectorTest)
[./test/inflector_test.rb:189:in `test_irregularity_between_serie_and_series'
./test/../lib/active_support/testing/setup_and_teardown.rb:67:in `__send__'
./test/../lib/active_support/testing/setup_and_teardown.rb:67:in `run']:
<"serie"> expected but was
<"series">.

Hi, this happens because series is uncountable, meaning that its singular form is the same as its plural:
inflect.uncountable(%w(equipment information rice money species series fish sheep))

Yeah it does, but it's kinda funky that custom inflections are overruled by the default uncountables. This isn't documented, and, imho, unwanted behaviour.

Yeah, I guess this could be patched so later rules would override previous ones, I however have no idea how simple or difficult that might be, feel free to investigate.

This is pretty easy to fix. I've attached a patch with a fix and tests.
