plural form for Czech

Asked by Kamil Páral

I am administrator of Czech Translators Team. Current plural expression for czech language in Rosetta is:

n%10==1 && n%100!=11 ? 0 : n%10>=2 && n%10<=4 && (n%100<10 || n%100>=20) ? 1 : 2

We would need to change it to

(n==1) ? 1 : (n>=2 && n<=4) ? 2 : 0

Which is also plural form of upstream Gnome czech translations. As a matter of fact, we have the same need as our slovak friends

Where can I change the expression, or can someone else update it? Thanks.

And one more question, will all previous translations be evaluated in the future according to the old or the new plural expression? I hope it will evaluate according to the new one, without need of any changes to the old translations. That would be great.

I've fixed it now: https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/+languages/cs

Any old translations will be evaluated according to the new formula, as soon as a new language pack is built (you may need to wait another month for that, since you are barely late for the last one which entered testing a couple days back).

Well, I am really sorry, it seems I have mistaken the corresponding final numbers. I suppose it should be like this

(n==1) ? 0 : (n>=2 && n<=4) ? 1 : 2

I am not sure if that matters, I suppose it does because of compatibility with the old translations.

Too late now, we can't change it anymore.

Just kidding, fixed it now :)

Also, it does matter, because order of plural form translations might be mixed, and it would be totally broken.
