Remarks

Handles most cases of subjects ending in "s", "y", "ex", and "ix". This method is reflectively called from GrammarString.Format() when the format string contains the syntax: "{plural(object, quantity)}". For example, the statement GrammarString.Format("You have {1} new {plural({0},{1})}", "message", 3) results in the string "You have 3 new messages".
