Thread:Support/About StatusNet:B26e69c301e25e30dc35a357ebfe0925423185ea-PLURAL GETTEXT s and d others/fr

The description says that "#. TRANS: Plural is decided on the total number of users liking the notice (count of %%s + %d)."

In fact this would be useful only for deciding the plural form of the verb, but wrong for deciding how to generate the correct singular or plural form of "other/others" which is NOT the total number of users, but only %d (which may be only 1. When this extra number is zero, another resource is used, without "and %d other(s)".

As Gettext cannot take several numbers to generate plurals, it would be more convenient to simply separate the expression "%%s and %d other(s)", to be generated first (using total minus 4, when the total is larger than 4), before inserting the generated string into "%%s liked this", which will take the singular or plural form of the verb according to the total number of users.
