What does PluralizingEntitySetNameConvention do?

Question

I'm learning code first and I'm going over the default conventions ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg696316(v=vs.103).aspx ), and I'm wondering what PluralizingEntitySetNameConvention does. I understand it pluralizes something, like PluralizingTableNameConvention , but what does it pluralize exactly? Can you give an example where the effects of this convention would be noticeable?

Answer 1

It would be to do with the name to be used in creating navigation properties ie Person to People vs Person to Persons. I think this is relevant when you are using a designer to generate code.
