I have a couple of banana still-life images that aren't showing up under the search for 'bananas'

banana / bananas

search for the word banana yields 5828... search for bananas yields 736

thanks!

another one is 'whip' / 'whipped'/ and 'whipping' as in whipped cream... the same results come up for whip and whipped but there are far less results for 'whipping' cream

this is not about plural, but the word 'gauge' doesn't seem to be in the database because I always get a warning about spelling when I use it.

people/person
woman/women

woman/women seems to work, but
people (483143)
person (482638)

does not. sorry if i missed the conscientious decision somewhere to keep people/person different.

also:
daffodil (3008)
daffodils (3019)

seems awfully too close to be a plural error, but maybe so. still - it should be the same.

and:
building (181363)
buildings (163434)

i was quite surprised to see something as basic as building/buildings not get handled correctly. i wonder what other very simple everyday cases are incorrect too... hmmm...
