-- Check if each ending ends with the characters of any smaller endings, by
-- snipping off progressively larger pieces of the ending and comparing them to
-- all other endings.
-- If so, store the ending in an array indexed by the shorter ending.
-- For instance, -εσθαι ends with the characters of -αι and -σθαι.
