Hi,

i’m getting a translation failure:

translation data {:username=\>“Benutzername”} can not be used  
with :count =\> 1

What does this means?

In my de.yml File i wrote in the activerecord part:

```
models:
    user:
      username: 'Benutzername'

```

Thanks

Hi,  
Can you post your line where you’re trying to use that key?
