How to avoid plural "s" on string replace

[Xavier_Bit]

Hi!
I’m renmaing some parts of the UI with string replace and would need the system to avoid adding plurals for the new expression.

Is there any way to do that?

Great idea!

I need this function.

@Xavier_Bit @AndroidOL Yes, if you use the “Whole” replacement option, then it will not replace parts of the word, and in this case you could add a replacement for each of the singular and plural words as a whole replacement.

Thank you for your reply, @sandra

I understand what you are saying. However, I found that some words cannot be replaced, such as “submit”.

How to Translate the Submit Button in Different Languages?

I need the submit button to be translated based on the selected language. However, it currently always displays Submit in English, and I can’t find a way to change it for other languages (string replacement not work) Our teacher doesn’t understand English, so I need to make sure the button text is properly translated when switching languages. Is there a way to achieve this?

Additionally, there are some issues with replacing priorities. I want to replace “class” with “lesson” and “form” with “class,” but it is not feasible in actual use.

Hi Sandra!

Yeah, that won’t work it in my case. I’m renaming menu items which do not have a plural ‘s’ or are already in plural. So in this case ‘Time present’ would be displayed as ’ Time presents’.

I would love a special character to suppress the addition of the plural s.

This problem would even occur if I would change the expression directly in the language file, right?

Hi @Xavier_Bit I can’t quite see why this wouldn’t work. The “whole” option will only replace whole strings, which means nothing will be added to the string. If the string replacement is set to Whole, and you give it a whole string to replace, it will not replace parts of strings (plurals are not appended, they are part of the string).
