#
# This function takes a word as inputted from wolig.dat, presumably written
# in ktiv male, and makes a few predictions, such as that a vav in the
# beginning of the word must be a consonant. Predictions that appear here
# must have two traits:
# 1. They must be useful for the correct inflection of some word.
# For example, realising that the at the end of is a consonant
# help us later avoid the false inflection and instead generate
# the correct .
# 2. They must be correct in 100% of the cases. For example, a rule saying
# that every appearance of in the input is a consonant (w) is wrong,
# because of words like .
# However, the rules only have to "appear" correct (for all the actual
# words in wolig.dat), not necessarily be linguisticly correct. For
# example, we'll see below a rule that a at the end of a word is a
# consonant (w). This is indeed true for most nouns (, ), but not
# for . However, all of 's inflections have a consonant vav, and in
# the word itself we don't really care about mislabeling it "consonant"
# because a vav at the end of the word isn't doubled anyway under the
# Academia's rules.
#
# Actually the second rule can be relaxed a bit if we provide alternative
# ways to input a certain construct. For example, if "u" could signify a
# vowel vav in the input, then we wouldn't really care if in a few rare cases
# we wrongly decide a certain vav to be consonant: the user could override
# this decision by putting a "u" explicitly, instead of the vav, in the
