    Sure, you may credit me as Alexander Avramenko with link to twitter.

    Also, I have to say, in Ukrainian and Russian, and I think in some other Cyrillic languages, there are different endings of nouns with different numerals.

    For example, in English there are 2 types of endings (for singluar and plural).
    So, you say or write
    ??

    1 second     minute    hour    day    week    month    year       ago
    2 seconds    minutes   hours   days   weeks   months   years      ago
    3 seconds    minutes   hours   days   weeks   months   years      ago
    4 seconds    minutes   hours   days   weeks   months   years      ago
    5 seconds    minutes   hours   days   weeks   months   years      ago
    ...
    13 seconds   minutes   hours   days   weeks   months   years      ago
    ...
    20 seconds   minutes   hours   days   weeks   months   years      ago
    and so on.

    In Ukrainian, we have 3 types of endings. (Info is below).
    So, we say or write.

    1    день    тиждень    м?сяць
    2    дн?     тижн?      м?сяц?
    3    дн?     тижн?      м?сяц?
    4    дн?     тижн?      м?сяц?
    5    дн?в    тижн?в     м?сяц?в
    6    дн?в    тижн?в     м?сяц?в
    7    дн?в    тижн?в     м?сяц?в
    8    дн?в    тижн?в     м?сяц?в
    9    дн?в    тижн?в     м?сяц?в
    10   дн?в    тижн?в     м?сяц?в
    11   дн?в    тижн?в     м?сяц?в
    ...
    20   дн?в    тижн?в     м?сяц?в
    21   день    тиждень    м?сяць
    22   дн?     тижн?      м?сяц?
    23   дн?     тижн?      м?сяц?
    24   дн?     тижн?      м?сяц?
    25   дн?в    тижн?в     м?сяц?в
    26   дн?в    тижн?в     м?сяц?в
    ...
    30   дн?в    тижн?в     м?сяц?в

    So, if the number is one (1) or ends on one (1) AND greater that 20 we have one ending of the word/noun, like in

    1 день           м?сяць     р?к
    21 день          м?сяць     р?к
    31 день          м?сяць     р?к
    51 день          м?сяць     р?к
    91 день          м?сяць     р?к
    2141 день        м?сяць     р?к

    if the number is two (2), three (3), four (4) or ends on two (2), three (3), four (4) AND greater that 20 we have another ending of the word/noun, like in

    2 дн?
    3 дн?
    4 дн?
    22 дн?
    23 дн?
    24 дн?
    42 дн?
    43 дн?
    44 дн?
    402 дн?
    403 дн?
    404 дн?

    and in all other cases the ending is one (not the word ‘one’, lol), like in

    5 ... 9     дн?в
    10          дн?в
    11 ... 20   дн?в
    36 ... 40   дн?в
    76 ... 80   дн?в
    126 ... 130 дн?в

    So, I hope you, someday, upgrade your plugin with this data or info, I don’t really know ??
    Basically, you should add only one variables for “the 2nd case” (Take a look on the spreadsheet, you’ll understand what I meant)

    Here, I’ve made a spreadsheet for you. There are both Ukrainian and Russian

    If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
    Thanks!

    I’ve now released a new version of the plugin with your translation included.

    Thanks a lot for the spreadsheet, this is very useful information. Getting the plugin to work correctly with every different language variation is very complicated, so I’m not sure if I will ever manage to do that. But if I decide to give it a try, your information is very valuable.
