Support inflection of adjectives #13
Comments
+1 as an important case. I would put it at the same or slightly lower priority than nouns #19 . I know we are solving for a general message formatting solution, but I wonder how we plan to use this in MF2.0. Would adjective(s) and a noun be one placeholder or separate, with the need to link them somehow? This also relates to the ordering of adjectives #14 . @mihnita @macchiati Lower level question is - would our API get the whole set (adjectives and the noun) and try to sort it out, or do we expect that caller calls our code for each word (separately, with necessary grammatical information)? This is tangential to the original question. We can discuss this point in #3 . |
That’s a good discussion point. Can you start a separate issue for that? |
Edited post and pointed to issue #3 . |

We should be able to inflect adjectives. In English, this isn't as big of an issue. For a lot of other languages, adjectives inflect based on the grammatical number and grammatical gender of the noun being referenced.
For example, in Spanish, if I were to describe the color of a red light, I'd say "luz roja", but for lights, I'd say "luces rojas". If I say red book, then I'd say "libro rojo". The adjective typically takes on the grammatical properties of the noun being described.
