I have added 24 new words to the list: alveolus, baculum, carcinoma, cloaca, cystoma, hamulus, hippopotamus, iliac, incubus, loculus, measles, nucleolus, occiput, omphalos, primus, scrotum, seminoma, simulacrum, syconium, testis, thrombus, torus, umbilicus, and uterus. These words have been carefully selected to expand and improve the accuracy of the list of irregular-plurals. I hope that these additions will enhance the performance of the model and make it even more valuable for the users. 🚀
