I don't think It is not a problem, but probably the dictionary trying to find the nearest match. Since you don't look up words in plural or conjugated, but always in singular, and infinitives, the algorithm gave you what it appeared to be the closest word.

"Personarse" is a verb, by the way.

You entered a Spanish word and got a Spanish word in the dictionary. Try to enter Personas in the translation Spanish to English section and see what you get there,
