[13:15:02] It’s certainly “minus one degree” in British English, and “minus two degrees”. It’s a bit confusing, because singular noun forms are often used attributively, so a six-foot (or 183-centimetre) pole has a length of six feet (or 183 centimetres). Similarly, “a two-degree frost” (in 21st-century Britain) would correspond to a temperature of minus two degrees Celsius. [13:15:02] [13:15:02] (re @amire80: It's not totally precise in English, for example. In English, it's more like "equals 1" and "not equals 1". So it's definitely "...) [13:20:38] interresting, [13:20:39] do we have a function to select the grammatical number from the quantity? [13:20:41] (and for once, this case is easy in Breton, it's always singular - or collective if the word has no singular : 1 dog, 20 dog :D) (re @Al: It’s certainly “minus one degree” in British English, and “minus two degrees”. It’s a bit confusing, because singular noun forms...) [13:31:26] I doubt it. I think we’d generally prefer abbreviations that are unmarked for number. Then the general rule is singular forms for attributive uses (“a two-week delay”) and standard plurals when predicative (“a distance of one kilometre”).

[13:33:07] IMO this is not an urgent priority because hardly any of our HTML fragments even use natural number input yet. [14:56:33] This is now moderately useable. There's a little bit more to do to deal with multiple countries, but it's good enough to start using: Z38757 (re @feedmepaperr: but that's like. most people.) [15:04:29] I'll also make a better default tomorrow. 🎃 [15:41:15] FYI, some language don't need past tense for dead people (notably French) (re @u99of9: I'd suggest avoiding any deceased people for now. We don't have many functions that render in the past tense. We should make the...) [22:45:52] That makes your localisation even easier! (Hint hint...)
