Line 16:
return tostring(number) .. sep .. ((number == 1) and singular or plural)
-- this uses an interesting trick of Lua:
-- * and reurnsreturns false if the first argument is false, and the second otherwise, so (number==1) and singular returns singular if its 1, returns false if it is only 1
-- * or returns the first argument if it is not false, and the second argument if the first is false
-- * so, if number is 1, and evaluates (true and singular) returning (singular); or evaluates (singular or plural), finds singular non-false, and returns singular
