Thread:Support/New plural rules for Scots Gaelic (gd)/reply (32)

If you expand all the comments above, you'll see that it was Lloffiwr who okayed the current solution. The reason is (according to Lloffiwr) that Wiki logic looks for a plural for anything above 1 but that in Gaelic, 11 patterns with 1 (i.e. 1 of something and 11 of something is treated the same, as if it was singular). The only workable solution that was mooted at the time was to split these apart, counting 11 as a fake plural.

I'm a great believer in "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" ... why the sudden rush to change something that's working fine?
