Yeao, read them both before posting.
Please provide the tr line as even after re-reading I don't think it (is/are selection) can be done, and please reference where the docs cover that syntax.
To put it in s more documentation example way:
Example: tr("%n message(s) saved", "", n) )
What I want: tr("%n messages(s) [were|was] saved)", "", n) <- what do I need to modify here to get was/were resolving correctly?
The page on http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/i18n-plural-rules.html does not seem to be of help. It only tells me the rules Qt uses internally for determining pluralization. I do not see how I can supply a plural and non-plural string, or a string that works in both contexts and included is/are or was/were, respectively.
