[wp-polyglots] Problem with plural form

[avazbek at gmail.com]

Hi,

I'm getting such error:
Broken catalog file: singular form msgstr used together with msgid_plural

The problem is that Uzbek language has a plural form (lar) but it's
not used in such way as it is used in WordPress.

Thus, both %s post and %s posts use singular form. If in english you
say 1 post, 2 posts and etc. we say 1 post, 2 post and etc. That's why
I didn't enter plural form for the WP project in poEdit, and when I
translate such strings which have plural forms poEdit giving the error
described above and I can't even reopen the saved file.

Right now I'm leaving such strings and decided to translate them in a
text editor one by one but I wonder if there's any better solution for
this problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
