--- Comment #10 from Heiko Tietze <tietze.heiko at gmail.com> ---
It's not only the row/rows issue. How plural is applied depends on languages.
In many languages it's n=0 for singular and n>0 plural but French, for
instance, has three forms (n=0, n=1, n>1) and Arab six different forms. The
typical solution is to take the number into account for localization [1].
The abbreviation in brackets is the second best solution. The plural form
depends in German on genus and loanword and can be (n/en), (r/er), (s), and
sometimes without any suffix. In this case it's simple with Spalte(n) and
Zeile(n) but there might be something like "<Row> (s/n/e/r)" in some languages. 
On the other hand the (s) a quick and dirty solution that solves this problem.
So I'm not against. 
@Sophie: What do you think?
