# Sample configuration file for use with the --road-name-config option.
# -*- coding: UTF-8 -*-
# This gives road name prefixes and suffixes in various languages.
# A road name like West Main Street is separated into a prefix 'West',
# the important part 'Main', and the suffix 'Street'.
# The first section lists often used prefixes and suffixes for a language.
# The next section is used to configure which languages are used for road names
# in each country.
# Note that the order of the options doesn't matter, as well as the position
# in the comma separated lists. Very important is the proper usage of blanks
# within the quotation marks as well as the spelling.
# Having suffixes makes Find>Address less easy to use on some GPS devices! See posting 21-Feb-2019:

# Section 1
# prefix1:<lang> list of 1st words
# prefix2:<lang> further words to combine with each prefix1 word, separated with a blank
# suffix:<lang> gives list of suffix words

# UK road names don't have prefixes, eg "North View" and "South View" are unlikely to be connected.
# So, via Section 2 (country to language mapping), have different prefix/suffix for the UK:
#prefix1:en_gb = empty
# UK road names have many different suffixes and should not be used as they make address searching counter-intuitive
#suffix:en_gb = " Arcade", " Avenue", " Boulevard", " Circus", " Close", " Court", " Crescent", " Croft", " Drive", " Field", " Fields", " Gardens", " Gate", " Grove", " Hill", " Lane", " Mews", " Parade", " Park", " Passage", " Place", " Rise", " Road", " Square", " Street", " Terrace", " View", " Villas", " Walk", " Way", " Wood", " Yard"

# Section 2
# Map three letter ISO country codes to list of used languages for road names.
# It is assumed that the style sets mkgmap:country to one of these ISO codes.
# Botswana (BWA), Kenya (KEN), Malawi (MWI), Zambia (ZMB) and Zimbabwe (ZWE), owing to their colonial past,
# have a similar naming format to the UK and the same suffixes are common, so treat them as en_gb
