## Helpers

- `t(phrase:String, [locale:String], [options:Object])`: Translates a single 
phrase and adds it to locales if unknown. It returns translated parsed and 
substituted string.

Example:
```js
t('hello');
t('hello', { name: 'John' });

t('hello', 'sw');
t('hello', 'sw', { name: 'John' });

```

- `n(phrase:String, [locale:String|count:Number], count:Number)`: Plurals translation of a single phrase. Singular and plural forms will get added to locales if unknown. Returns translated parsed and substituted string based on last count parameter.

Example:
```js
n('You have %s message', 1);
n('You have %s message', 10);

n('You have %s message', 'sw', 1);
n('You have %s message', 'sw', 10);
