aivi.i18n

Internationalisation marker helpers for user-facing text.

This module is deliberately small today:

• tr returns the text you pass in unchanged
• trn chooses the singular text when the count is 1, otherwise the plural text

That still lets you mark strings for translation now, even before a real locale/catalog runtime is wired in.

Import

use aivi.i18n (
    tr
    trn
    translate
    translatePlural
)
