[Bug 834226] Re: [dash] See %1 more result inconsistency

 

May this line be changed to use plurals?

return u2d.tr("See %1 more results").arg(availableCount)

There are quite a few languages, where this does matter, see: http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/gettext.html#Plural-forms
The English original would use in this case the same string for the singular and plural case, but the affected languages would translate them differently.

Title:
  [dash] See %1 more result inconsistency

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Triaged
Status in Unity 2D:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  If numerals are going to be used instead of words for more than 1
  result in "See %1 more result(s)" than the numeral 1 should be used as
  well. It should be "See 1 more result". I think this is more
  consistent.
