Array properties that include the word "men" in the name result in incorrectly named item class

[pphillips-techphob]

The food ratings agency api (http://api.ratings.food.gov.uk/Help/Api/GET-Establishments-basic) generates JSON of the form:

{
  "establishments": [
    {
      "FHRSID": 1
    }
  ]
}

The generator then creates a Java class called Establishmants.java with an a rather than an e in ments. Not a big issue as I can then do a global search and replace on the generated code, but it would be good to be able to turn it off.

It looks like this is a bug in the inflector. We're trying to make a singular noun from the word 'establishments', and the result should clearly be 'establishment' but in fact this:

new Inflector().singularize("establishments")

returns

"establishmants"

There's a rule in the inflector which turns 'men' into 'man' (e.g. the singular of 'postmen' is 'postman'). I expect the rule needs to be adjusted so that 'men/man' need to be found at the end of the word for that rule to apply. Or, if that's not possible, we can remove the men/man rule entirely.

Thanks for raising this. Unfortunately I can't think of a workaround at the moment.
