Plural information for Marshallese

I speak Marshallese. This is the information I have but I don't know if I did it right. Please help figure out if it's right.

name: Marshallese
code: mh
code_aliases: mah
nplurals: 2
pluralequation: (n > 1)
rule_zero: -
rule_one: n is one
rule_two: -
rule_few: -
rule_many: -
rule_other: - "everything else"

We only have two plurals (plural or singular) for nouns but the plural particle is different for human than for non-human.

Ex:

The apple = Apol eo
The apples = Apol ko

The person = Armej eo
The people/persons = Armej ro

1 apol eo
2 apol ko
3 apol ko...

1 armej eo
2 armej ro
3 armej ro...

Thanks for the information. I've set the plural expression to "n != 1" rather than "n > 1", because examples I've seen online treat 0 as plural. Let me know if that's incorrect and I can change it.

Can you help with this problem?
