# MessageFormat plural syntax in messages.properties
# Uses java.text.ChoiceFormat — NOT ICU plural rules
cart.itemCount={0,choice,0#No items|1#1 item|1<{0,number} items}

# For more complex plurals, use ICU4J:
# 1. Add dependency: com.ibm.icu:icu4j
# 2. Use ICUMessageSource instead of ResourceBundleMessageSource
#
# Then you can write ICU-style plurals:
# cart.items={count, plural, one {# item} other {# items}}

# Variables with MessageFormat:
welcome.message=Welcome, {0}! You have {1,number} new {1,choice,1#notification|1<notifications}.
order.total=Order total: {0,number,currency}
event.date=Event date: {0,date,long}
