# Inflection Rules For Irregular Nouns:
#
# OF MICE AND MEN (and TEETH and WIVES): (1-Oct-92)
#
RULE: man$|noun|singular|men$|noun|plural
#

# terms: "peritoneal mouse", "pleural mouse" and "joint mouse" is. I assume
# that analogy is strong enough to support "mice" plurals for these.

RULE: fe$|noun|singular|ves$|noun|plural
EXCEPTION: rife|rives;

# "f|noun|ve|verb" derivational rule too unproductive to make it into
# dm.rul.
