Thanks, though it would be easier to attach a zipped copy to the list.
I committed it.

I take it your issue is that while in English it is acceptable to add
"(s)" for a plural alternative, in other languages the plural must
be a different word, or there may be different words for different
quantities of the noun?
So do I assume you want to use ngettext functions
e.g. printf (ngettext ("%d file removed", "%d files removed", n), n);
as per:
http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/Plural-forms.html ?
If so, I think a developer would have to comment about that.

The teachers should be able to see a Slovak language choice in
Audacity's Interface Preferences if they download Audacity from
our site:
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/windows .
We don't modify a release once made, so if the teachers want the
complete translation you just made, they will not be able to get that
until the next release of Audacity, unless they download the next
Nightly Build (09 April) from here:
http://gaclrecords.org.uk/win-nightly/ .
You must be sure to tell the teachers that those are not released
builds, so they may contain bugs.
Thanks for your interest!
