Cardinalities

• CARDINALITY_ONE

  Matches n = 1

  Example Integers: 1

  Example Decimals: 1.0, 1.00, 1.000, 1.0000

• CARDINALITY_OTHER

  Matches all other values

  Example Integers: 0, 2, 16, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000, 1000000, …

  Example Decimals: 0.0, 0.9, 1.1, 1.6, 10.0, 100.0, 1000.0, 10000.0, 100000.0, 1000000.0, …

Cardinality example

This localized strings example uses complete, page-local CLDR minimal-pair patterns to demonstrate every Cardinality category defined for the locale. Minimal-pair text contrasts grammatical forms; it is language-reference data, not reusable application copy.

Source: Unicode CLDR 48.2 ks locale data.

Usage and expected results

The Java code passes each raw number for cardinality selection and formats its display value separately with NumberFormat. For this right-to-left locale, Lokalized's default BidiIsolation.RTL_LOCALES wraps caller-supplied formatted values with U+2068 FIRST STRONG ISOLATE and U+2069 POP DIRECTIONAL ISOLATE; the expected expressions below show those escapes.

Locale locale = Locale.forLanguageTag("ks");

Strings strings = Strings.withFallbackLocale(locale)
  .localizedStringSupplier(() -> LocalizedStringLoader.loadFromFilesystem(Paths.get("strings")))
  .localeSupplier((matcher) -> matcher.bestMatchFor(locale))
  .build();

NumberFormat numberFormat = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(locale);

// Raw numbers select language forms; NumberFormat produces the display values

// CARDINALITY_ONE
Number oneCardinalityValue = 1;
String oneFormattedCardinalityValue = numberFormat.format(oneCardinalityValue);

assertEquals(Cardinality.ONE, Cardinality.forNumber(oneCardinalityValue, locale));

// Expected: <FSI>۱<PDI> دۅہ
// U+2068 FIRST STRONG ISOLATE begins bidirectional isolation around a caller-supplied value in right-to-left text
// U+2069 POP DIRECTIONAL ISOLATE ends bidirectional isolation around a caller-supplied value in right-to-left text
assertEquals("\u2068" + oneFormattedCardinalityValue + "\u2069 دۅہ", strings.get(
  "Cardinality.MinimalPair",
  Map.of(
    "cardinalityValue", oneCardinalityValue,
    "formattedCardinalityValue", oneFormattedCardinalityValue
  )
));

// CARDINALITY_OTHER
Number otherCardinalityValue = 0;
String otherFormattedCardinalityValue = numberFormat.format(otherCardinalityValue);

assertEquals(Cardinality.OTHER, Cardinality.forNumber(otherCardinalityValue, locale));

// Expected: <FSI>۰<PDI> دوہٕ
assertEquals("\u2068" + otherFormattedCardinalityValue + "\u2069 دوہٕ", strings.get(
  "Cardinality.MinimalPair",
  Map.of(
    "cardinalityValue", otherCardinalityValue,
    "formattedCardinalityValue", otherFormattedCardinalityValue
  )
));

Cardinality Ranges

No explicit CLDR cardinality-range mapping is defined for this language. Cardinality.forRange(...) therefore falls back to the ending cardinality for every range.

Ordinalities

All ordinal numbers use ORDINALITY_OTHER; no value selects a different form.

Example: ۲th دیچھُن گٔژھیو.

Addendum: Language Form Rules

The language form expressions above are specified by Unicode Technical Standard #35 and use the following notation:

• n absolute value of the source number (integer and decimals)
• i integer digits of n
• v number of visible fraction digits in n, with trailing zeros
• w number of visible fraction digits in n, without trailing zeros
• f visible fractional digits in n, with trailing zeros
• t visible fractional digits in n, without trailing zeros
• c/e compact decimal exponent operands used by some CLDR compact-number rules
