    uncountables are words that shouldn’t ever inflect, for metaphysical reasons, like ‘peace’

    'use strict';
    const uncountable_arr = require('../../data/uncountables.js');
    
    const uncountable = uncountable_arr.reduce(function(h, a) {
      h[a] = true;
      return h;
    }, {});
    
    const is_uncountable = function(str) {
      if (uncountable[str]) {
        return true;
      }
      return false;
    };
