it works like an original "pluralize" filter, but it need argument with 3 parts, splitted by comma.

orlenko (on September 3, 2009):

This filter will not work for numbers that end in 11, 12, 13, and 14. For example:

  • 1 стул
  • 2-4 стула
  • 5-10 стульев
  • 11, стульев (your code will return "стул")
  • 12, 13, 14 стульев (your code will return "стула")
  • 111 стульев
  • 121 стул
  • 212 стульев
  • 222 стула

Something like this would work better:

def rupluralize(value, endings):
    try:
        endings = endings.split(',')
        if value % 100 in (11, 12, 13, 14):
            return endings[2]
        if value % 10 == 1:
            return endings[0]
        if value % 10 in (2, 3, 4):
            return endings[1]
        else:
            return endings[2]
    except:
        raise TemplateSyntaxError
