How to Pluralize JavaScript Strings?

Estimated read time 1 min read

To pluralize a JavaScript string based on a given count, you can use a simple conditional statement to check the count and add an “s” to the end of the string if the count is greater than 1. Here’s an example:

function pluralizeString(str, count) {
  if (count !== 1) {
    return str + "s";
  }
  return str;
}

console.log(pluralizeString("apple", 1)); // outputs "apple"
console.log(pluralizeString("apple", 2)); // outputs "apples"

In this example, the pluralizeString() function takes a str parameter and a count parameter. If count is not equal to 1, the function returns the original str with an “s” added to the end. Otherwise, it returns the original str.

When pluralizeString("apple", 1) is called, the output is “apple” because the count is 1 and the if statement is not triggered. When pluralizeString("apple", 2) is called, the output is “apples” because the count is not 1 and the if statement adds an “s” to the end of the string.
