This template allows easy formatting of statements of the form "# thing(s)", with correct use of plurals. It uses the "plural" magic word, so ideally it should work with minimal modification for other language.

Syntax ред.

  • {{plural|number|name}}
  • {{plural|number|singular name|plural name}}

Examples ред.

For most English nouns, the plural is formed by adding "s" to the end of the singular form. If that is the case, only one "name" parameter is required:

  • {{plural|0|page}} returns "0 {{{4}}}"
  • {{plural|1|page}} returns "1 page"
  • {{plural|2|page}} returns "2 pages"
  • {{plural|-1|page}} returns "-1 page"
  • {{plural|-2|page}} returns "-2 pages"
  • {{plural|0.5|page}} returns "0.5 {{{5}}}"
  • {{plural|1.5|page}} returns "1.5 {{{5}}}"
  • {{plural|-0.5|page}} returns "-0.5 {{{5}}}"
  • {{plural|-1.5|page}} returns "-1.5 {{{5}}}"

For plurals that require adding "es", or more unusual forms, the singular and plural forms must be specified explicitly:

  • {{plural|0|ox|oxen}} returns "0 {{{4}}}"
  • {{plural|1|ox|oxen}} returns "1 ox"
  • {{plural|2|ox|oxen}} returns "2 oxen"
  • {{plural|-1|ox|oxen}} returns "-1 ox"
  • {{plural|-2|ox|oxen}} returns "-2 oxen"
  • {{plural|0.5|ox|oxen}} returns "0.5 {{{5}}}"
  • {{plural|1.5|ox|oxen}} returns "1.5 {{{5}}}"
  • {{plural|-0.5|ox|oxen}} returns "-0.5 {{{5}}}"
  • {{plural|-1.5|ox|oxen}} returns "-1.5 {{{5}}}"

Notes ред.

  • While {{plural|#|sheep|sheep}} is valid, it is also fairly pointless.
