Simple question – in the CAKE php framework – in inflection.php (class inflection)
why is “cookie” in the list of terms NOT to apply pluralization to?
uninflected' => array('.*[nrlm]ese', '.*deer', '.*fish', '.*measles', '.*ois', '.*pox', '.*sheep', 'people', 'cookie')
I get all of the rest but ‘cookie’ doesn’t make sense. e.g. plural is cookies.
It is possible that it is in that list by mistake. The cookie/cookies part can also be found where it actually belongs: in the irregular words section.
But the inflection of this word works nevertheless.
You can pluralize and singulare Cookie/Cookies just fine (I confirmed it using the current 2.3 head).
I made a PR (you could have done the same, of course) to clear this up: https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp/pull/1048
