plural

Background I work on an app that has many translations inside it. I have the next English plural strings: <plurals name="something"> <item quantity="one">added photo</item> <item quantity="other">added %d photos</item> </plurals> and the French translation: <plurals name="something"> <item quantity="one">a ajouté une photo</item> <item quantity="other">a ajouté %d photos</item> </plurals> The problem For both the French and Russian, I get the next warning: The quantity 'one' matches more than one specific number in this locale, but the message did not include a formatting argument (such as %d)

Android allows translators to define Plurals . The following example works for me with locale 'en': <plurals name="numberOfSongsAvailable"> <item quantity="one">One song found.</item> <item quantity="other">%d songs found.</item> </plurals> But adding a special value for two does not work, still the other version is taken.

The SO Question Android plurals treatment of “zero” spots the same mistake when using zero in English which is also

I was going to use Java's standard i18n system with the ChoiceFormat class for plurals, but then realized that it doesn't handle the complex plural rules of some languages (e.g. Polish). If it only handles languages that resemble English, then it seems a little pointless. What options are there to achieve correct plural forms? What are the pros and cons of using them? Paweł Dyda Well, you already tagged the question correctly, so I assume you know thing or two about ICU . With ICU you have two choices for proper handling of plural forms: PluralRules , which gives you the rules for given Locale

Plural table names are default convention in EF. but when I have added the prefix I can not make names anymore plural unfortunately. Any ideas? protected override void OnModelCreating(DbModelBuilder modelBuilder) { modelBuilder.Types() .Configure(entity => entity.ToTable("MyPrefix_" + entity.ClrType.Name)); modelBuilder.Conventions.Add<PluralizingTableNameConvention>(); base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder); } The PluralizingTableNameConvention uses a PluralizationService that can be used anywhere. So you can go ahead and use it in your configuration code. Here is an example using a Model "Person
