Hi,

It seems that this cannot be solved easily. It is recommended to pluralize the 
first variable of i18n(), but gettext with ordered variables do not want to 
handle translations that do not contain all of them.

Is it an appropriate way to say

Ontvangen %1$d bestand vanaf %2$s

or

Ontvangen van %1$d van %2$d bestand vanaf %3$s is mislukt

?

Thanks in advance for your answer.

Best regards,
Yuri
