        Hello,

        while doing translations I noticed that some fields make more sense if the have a differenatiation between singular and plural.
        Can this be done in weblate or only by the one creating and implementing it?

        Cheers.

                Something along the lines of "xyz video(s) selected" should work for some languages.

                Everyone believes that their actions are better than the alternatives.

                  Yeah well it is an okay solution but not a good one. For some languages it might work. But again it looks like "lazy" translation πŸ˜‰
