_n() returns plural when count is zero

<?php
sprintf( _n( 'penny', 'pence', 0 ), 0 );

should return 'penny' and not 'pence'.

I think I would have used the plural form 0 pence, but note that English is not my first language ;-)

I guess it also depends on the language. In Icelandic I think it's custom to say 0 krónur (plural) instead of 0 króna (singular).

In english only 1 is considered as singular, zero is always considered as plural. It seems correct to me.

In English, a zero value is always followed by a plural form. Note that ​plural forms can be adjusted per locale.
