For full i18n pluralization use: (from http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/i18n/#pluralization) [ {% blocktrans count list|counted as counter %} There is only one {{ name }} object. {% plural %} There are {{ counter }} {{ name }} objects. {% endblocktrans %} ] And in sl/django(js).po file add: (from http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_chapter/gettext_10.html#SEC150) [ Four forms, special case for one and all numbers ending in 02, 03, or 04 The header entry would look like this: Plural-Forms: nplurals=4; \ plural=n%100==1 ? 0 : n%100==2 ? 1 : n%100==3 || n%100==4 ? 2 : 3; Languages with this property include: Slavic family Slovenian ] You can look for example in sr translation because current sl translation don't have Plural-Forms defined. -- Nebojša Đorđević - nesh Studio Quattro - Niš http://studioquattro.biz/ http://djnesh.blogspot.com/ | http://djnesh-django.blogspot.com/ | http://trac.studioquattro.biz/djangoutils/ Registered Linux User 282159 [http://counter.li.org] --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
