If you want to register more rules, follow:
```
inflection.AddUncountable("fish")
inflection.AddIrregular("person", "people")
inflection.AddPlural("(bu)s$", "${1}ses") # "bus" => "buses" / "BUS" => "BUSES" / "Bus" => "Buses"
inflection.AddSingular("(bus)(es)?$", "${1}") # "buses" => "bus" / "Buses" => "Bus" / "BUSES" => "BUS"
```
