verbalizer
The verbalizer is a default shared instance of the Verbalizer class. It comes preloaded with standard English conjugation rules and irregular verbs.
When to Use
- Use this instance when you don't need multiple configurations.
- If you need isolated or custom rules, you can instantiate the class directly as
new Verbalizer().
Features
- Convert verbs between base, past tense, and past participle forms.
- Built-in support for irregular verbs (e.g.
go→went→gone). - Preserves case sensitivity of input verbs.
- Modify rules dynamically at runtime.

Extending Rules
Since verbalizer is a shared instance, modifications to it at runtime affect all consumers:
import { verbalizer } from 'toolbox-x/verbalizer';
// Add a custom base rule
verbalizer.addBaseRule(/ied$/i, 'y');
// Add a custom past tense rule
verbalizer.addPastRule(/e$/i, 'ed');
// Add a custom past participle rule
verbalizer.addParticipleRule(/e$/i, 'ed');
// Add an irregular verb
verbalizer.addIrregular('swim', 'swam', 'swum');See Also
