Hi,

When releasing the latest Koha in the 21.05.x series, an automated check complains about nplurals not being defined.

in si-messages-js.po "Plural-Forms: nplurals=INTEGER; plural=EXPRESSION;\n" note: Plural-Forms seems to be only in this file and not in master, it's in 21.05.x branch.

@Sinhala speakers: how does plural work? How many forms are there and what are the rules? For example some languages have sigular and three plurals. With the 1st plural form being used when there are two elements. With the 2nd plural form being used when there are between 3 and 5 elements. With the 3rd plural form being used when there are between 5 and more elements.

@Bernardo maybe there is somewhere already the info for .po file for Sinhala? Or maybe we do like the other files and Koha branches where the Plural-Forms head isn't there? But how like plural translations work then?
