Follow-up Comment #3:

When a translation for "2 weeks" shall look different than a translation for
"3 weeks", "4 weeks", etc., the Plural-Forms formula needs to be adjusted, to
cover three cases: n == 1, n == 2, and otherwise.

Unfortunately this affects all plural messages in the PO file; you cannot do
it for a single message. But anyway.

Here is an example (also as an attachment):

msgid ""
msgstr ""
"Project-Id-Version: \n"
"Report-Msgid-Bugs-To: \n"
"Last-Translator: \n"
"Language-Team: Hebrew\n"
"Language: he\n"
"MIME-Version: 1.0\n"
"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n"
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n"
"Plural-Forms: nplurals=3; plural=(n == 1 ? 0 : n == 2 ? 1 : 2);\n"

msgid "one week"
msgid_plural "%d weeks"
msgstr[0] "שבוע אחד"
msgstr[1] "שבועיים"
msgstr[2] "שבועות %d"
