Thank you @janosh.

By the way, we should probably catch all verb+in occurrences.

How could that be done?

  1. Open a different issue 😄
  2. Find a dictionary of all English verbs and add in, or better yet, find a dictionary of the present participle of all English verbs. There are lists of irregular verbs out there, but I cannot find a list of all English verbs, or at least the most common ones.

As a starter we could probably drop the g from every ing word in our current dictionaries and then eyeball them.
