Pluralization for translations

iskin Pro says:

Now you have in translations only singular (1 cow) and plural (5 cows) forms, but in another languages (mostly in the Slavic languages) we have another pluralization rules.

For example, in Russian: 1 корова, 2 коровы, 5 коров, 11 коров, 13 коров, 15 коров, 21 корова, 22 коровы, 25 коров.

You just need third plural form in translations and custom pluralization rules (a lot of i18n libraries contain rules for many languages, for example Ruby’s R18n https://github.com/ai/r18n/tree/master/r18n-core/locales ).
