Comment (by boonebgorges):

 The key point seems to be this:

 > `_n()` should only be used for the same string with different numbers,
 not for different strings.

 The "single" English string will be used in Slavic languages for 21, 31,
 etc. So that means our new pagination pattern will look something like
 [attachment:6368.diff]. Does that seem right to others? If so, we'll need
 a patch that covers all such pagination strings, and probably a review of
 other uses of `_n()`.
