Let's say your multilingual site supports two languages, English and Polish. Create a translation table for each language in the i18n directory.
i18n/
├── en.toml
└── pl.toml
The translation tables can contain both:
- Simple translations
- Translations with pluralization
The Unicode CLDR Plural Rules chart describes the pluralization categories for each language.
The English translation table:
{{< code-toggle file=i18n/en copy=false >}}
simple translations
privacy = 'privacy' security = 'security'
translations with pluralization
[day] one = 'day' other = 'days'
[day_with_count] one = '{{ . }} day' other = '{{ . }} days' {{< /code-toggle >}}
The Polish translation table:
{{< code-toggle file=i18n/pl copy=false >}}
simple translations
privacy = 'prywatność' security = 'bezpieczeństwo'
translations with pluralization
[day] one = 'miesiąc' few = 'miesiące' many = 'miesięcy' other = 'miesiąca'
[day_with_count] one = '{{ . }} miesiąc' few = '{{ . }} miesiące' many = '{{ . }} miesięcy' other = '{{ . }} miesiąca' {{< /code-toggle >}}
{{% note %}}
The examples below use the T alias for brevity.
{{% /note %}}
When viewing the English language site:
{{ T "privacy" }} → privacy
{{ T "security" }} → security
{{ T "day" 0 }} → days
{{ T "day" 1 }} → day
{{ T "day" 2 }} → days
{{ T "day" 5 }} → days
{{ T "day_with_count" 0 }} → 0 days
{{ T "day_with_count" 1 }} → 1 day
{{ T "day_with_count" 2 }} → 2 days
{{ T "day_with_count" 5 }} → 5 days
When viewing the Polish language site:
{{ T "privacy" }} → prywatność
{{ T "security" }} → bezpieczeństwo
{{ T "day" 0 }} → miesięcy
{{ T "day" 1 }} → miesiąc
{{ T "day" 2 }} → miesiące
{{ T "day" 5 }} → miesięcy
{{ T "day_with_count" 0 }} → 0 miesięcy
{{ T "day_with_count" 1 }} → 1 miesiąc
{{ T "day_with_count" 2 }} → 2 miesiące
{{ T "day_with_count" 5 }} → 5 miesięcy
In the pluralization examples above, we passed an integer in context (the second argument). You can also pass a map in context, creating a count key to control pluralization.
Translation table:
{{< code-toggle file=i18n/en copy=false >}} [age] one = '{{ .name }} is {{ .count }} year old.' other = '{{ .name }} is {{ .count }} years old.' {{< /code-toggle >}}
Template:
{{ T "age" (dict "name" "Will" "count" 1) }} → Will is 1 year old.
{{ T "age" (dict "name" "John" "count" 3) }} → John is 3 years old.
