The purpose of these 2 libraries are very different.

Humanizer is a library to do operations on strings, one of the operation is to pluralize a word : "man".Pluralize().

To cut a long story short, Humanizer does:

  • verify if the word is "man" "woman" "child", etc... and use the correct plural
  • verify the ending of the word: potato => potatoES
  • verify if the word is uncountable
  • else add a S

It only supports english, no sentences and is not related numbers.

PluralNet is totally different, it's a tool for localizations (select the correct resource depends of the number), if you want to display:

  • you have removed XX item(s), you can restore this file(s) using this link.

You can create 2 resources:

  • you have removed 1 item, you can restore this file using this link.
  • you have removed {0} items, you can restore these files, using this link.

PluralNet will select the correct string depends of the number and will support all languages.

For example

  • 0 is singular in french
  • 9999.999991 is singular for some languages cause ending with a 1
  • Polish has 4 different plural forms

etc...

I wrote an article about that, read it here:

To conclude, both libraries are useful but has 2 different purposes, you can use both on your application

from pluralnet.
