<h3 id="Asterisk13Application_SayCountedNoun-Synopsis">Synopsis</h3>

<p>Say a noun in declined form in order to count things</p>

<h3 id="Asterisk13Application_SayCountedNoun-Description">Description</h3>

<p>Selects and plays the proper singular or plural form of a noun when saying things such as &quot;five calls&quot;. English has simple rules for deciding when to say &quot;call&quot; and when to say &quot;calls&quot;, but other languages have complicated rules which would be extremely difficult to implement in the Asterisk dialplan language.</p>

<p>The correct sound file is selected by examining the <em>number</em> and adding the appropriate suffix to <em>filename</em>. If the channel language is English, then the suffix will be either empty or &quot;s&quot;. If the channel language is Russian or some other Slavic language, then the suffix will be empty for nominative, &quot;x1&quot; for genative singular, and &quot;x2&quot; for genative plural.</p>

<p>Note that combining <em>filename</em> with a suffix will not necessarily produce a correctly spelled plural form. For example, SayCountedNoun(2,man) will play the sound file &quot;mans&quot; rather than &quot;men&quot;. This behavior is intentional. Since the file name is never seen by the end user, there is no need to implement complicated spelling rules. We simply record the word &quot;men&quot; in the sound file named &quot;mans&quot;.</p>

<p>This application does not automatically answer and should be preceeded by an application such as Answer() or Progress.</p>
