Template documentation This documentation is transcluded from Template:Plural/doc. (edit | history) This template allows easy formatting of statements of the form "# thing(s)", with correct use of plurals. It uses the "plural" magic word, so ideally it should work with minimal modification for other language. Syntax {{plural|number|name}} {{plural|number|singular name|plural name}} Examples For most English nouns, the plural is formed by adding "s" to the end of the singular form. If that is the case, only one "name" parameter is required: {{plural|0|page}} returns "0 pages" {{plural|1|page}} returns "1 page" {{plural|2|page}} returns "2 pages" For plurals that require adding "es", or more unusual forms, the singular and plural forms must be specified explicitly: {{plural|0|ox|oxen}} returns "0 oxen" {{plural|1|ox|oxen}} returns "1 ox" {{plural|2|ox|oxen}} returns "2 oxen" Notes While {{plural|#|sheep|sheep}} is valid, it is also fairly pointless.
