Where does the "5" come from in the json-export of pluralized strings?

Hi @Bertrand_Delforge,

Thank you for submitting your questions.

Please find my comments/answers below:

  • Why “1” and “5”? What do these numbers mean?
    Answer:
    1 refers to the form “one” and “5” refers to the form “other”

  • Can I rely on my English-plurals to always be stored under “5”?
    Answer:
    I am not sure I have understood your question. Could you elaborate a little bit on this?

  • I suspect that if my source language had been Russian I would have had other numbers there. Is that correct?
    Answer:
    Correct! Each language has its own plural rules specified here

  • Where can I find some documentation about this?
    Answer:
    Except for the link provided above, you can also check our documentation guide here and here

I hope this helps.

Please let me know if you need any additional clarification.

Regards,
Nina
