Post title: exact form match masks lemma-based matches

Hello,

Just for the record, after a bit of testing and some help from STAR's support, this is what seems to happen, or rather, this is what I do to reproduce the issue:

I create two new entries in my termstar dictionary:
[A] opération -> operación SINGULAR
[B] opérations -> operaciones PLURAL

It seems the literal match of the term in plural form (in plural both in the dictionary --entry B-- and in the translation) masks/prevents the lemma-based match (lemma in the dictionary in entry A inflected form in the translation).

If the term appears in singular in the text (i.e. "opération"), there's a match with entry [A] above. If the term appears in plural in the text (i.e. "opérations"), there's a match with entry [B] above, but not with entry [A]. My expected behaviour in the latter case would be to see both entries.

In other words, the dictionary form of the source term (in the singular) is only matched when the term is used in the singular in the text. The dictionary form (singular lemma) of the term is NOT matched when the term is used in the plural in the text IF there is another dictionary entry where the source term is also in the plural form.

Cheers, Manuel
