Can any one point a real example when a zero is passed as an argument in an application. In Arabic zero has no rule. ;) so it's not correct to say zero files. > > It is also not clear whether first case is right or should be n%100<=1 Does it make a difference, practically? > IIRC, 100 does not drive singular but rather 4th form. > > Discussion restarted between Arabeyes people in order to find > something appropriate.

Actually, there are no Arabic rules AFAIK for dealing with numbers when they are written in numbers. The rules we studied at school deal with writing the numbers in words. Things like One hundered and two but not 102. In the latter case, nothing can be accurate. Just let pray the number would never be something and one or something and two ;) -- Munzir Taha PGP Key available gpg --recv-keys --keyserver www.mandrakesecure.net F0671821 Telecommunications and Electronics Engineer Linux Registered User #279362 at http://counter.li.org Mandrake Club member Maintainer of the Open Arabic Bugs Project at http://wiki.arabeyes.org/OpenBugs CIW Designer, ICDL, MOUS New Horizons CLC Riyadh, SA _______________________________________________ Doc mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.arabeyes.org/mailman/listinfo/doc
