Description

Konkani is the language spoken in Goa and South Kanara in India. They use either Devanagari or English as a script. We have started training of teachers and eventually students using OLPC (Sugar Desktop) and so we would want Konkani added in the localization infrastructure. The iso suggests it should be kok-IN.

Do you have the plural data for Konkani ? (see http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/l10n/pluralforms for more info)

Replying to sayamindu:

Do you have the plural data for Konkani ? (see http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/l10n/pluralforms for more info)

I suppose it is safe to assume the following:
nplurals=2; plural=(n != 1) as in other Indian languages. But, I am not an authority to speak for Konkani. I will confirm after some investigation.

Are we talking about gom or knn ?

If it is Goan Konkani (as I think it might be), we should probably use lang-gom as the ISO 639-3 code to represent it.
