Hi, I found this link in internet https://www.cssigniter.com/wordpress-localization-plural-forms-work/, where I found an example for Greek plurals.
msgid "%s apple"msgid_plural "%s apples"msgstr[0] ""msgstr[1] "" Which I would go on and translate as: msgid "%s apple"msgid_plural "%s apples"msgstr[0] "%s μήλο"msgstr[1] "%s μήλα" Note that the *msgstr[0]* line contains the singular form, and *not the translation of the words for the case of **%s** being equal to **0*. *msgstr* is really a zero-based array, and *msgstr[0]* is its first element. Similarly, *msgstr[1]* is the second element, and does not hold the string for *%s = 1*. This is due to the *nplurals=2; plural=(n != 1);* line. *nplurals=2; plural=(n != 1);* is a C-syntax expression, and as far as the Plural Forms are concerned, it’s almost identical to PHP’s expressions. C variables don’t get a dollar sign in front of them, so you can now start seeing that the content of that line is just two variables getting assigned something. Breaking it into two lines and adding some spaces makes it a bit more clear. There, I could see that "the *msgstr[0]* line contains the *singular form*, and *not the translation of the words for the case of **%s** being equal to **0", so: the translation of the words is right, but not the type: *Μορφή πληθυντικού του 0. (Plural form 0 or 1) and I don't know where is it taken from. In Greek there is only one plural (with different cases) and so the nplurals=2 is misleading. Bye.
