How to translate Laravel "hardcoded" string "(and 1 more error)", using dynamic translation key..( Validation Exception class )

Question

I have some validations in place, and I am validating it like this:

and I noticed when there is more than 1 error, laravel will add to the message "and 1(or 2 or 4..) more error(s)" ..

Take a look at the images and you will see what I mean:

I found out where this is happening inside the Laravel framework / which function:

it calls the Translator get method with a dynamic key! How would I translate dynamic keys??

I tried a few things:

• Adding the key with the placeholder in both English/Portuguese "validation" translation file
• Add the key with the number itself (replaced placeholder)

none took effect, see what I mean below:

I've noticed there are other people with the same issue when searching in Google but so far I have not found a solution, I would like not to have to do a "string replace" and use a more elegant solution... Anyone could help?

Thanks, a lot

The (and :count more error) and (and :count more errors) need to be added to your json translation files as this is not a "short key" but a "translation string": https://laravel.com/docs/9.x/localization#using-translation-strings-as-keys
