.. note:: Plural form and po files

    Django does not support custom plural equations in po files. As all
    translation catalogs are merged, only the plural form for the main Django po
    file (in ``django/conf/locale/<lang_code>/LC_MESSAGES/django.po``) is
    considered. Plural forms in all other po files are ignored. Therefore, you
    should not use different plural equations in your project or application po
    files.
