Crate facet_singularize 

Fast, no-regex English singularization.

This crate provides functions to convert plural English words to their singular form, without using regex. It’s designed for use in deserialization where performance matters.

Example

use facet_singularize::singularize;

assert_eq!(singularize("dependencies"), "dependency");
assert_eq!(singularize("items"), "item");
assert_eq!(singularize("children"), "child");
assert_eq!(singularize("boxes"), "box");

Performance

This crate uses simple string operations (suffix matching, table lookups) instead of regex, making it suitable for hot paths like deserialization.

Functions

is_singular_of

Check if a singular word could be the singular form of a plural word.

singularize
