I need some advice: I'm currently translating the
names to Portuguese,
and for some countries the portuguese name differ from the brazilian
portuguese (which I speak) to the european portuguese. So, should I
tag, "official_/name:pt=one of the forms" or
"official_/name:pt=brazilian portuguese name; european portuguese
name"? Or maybe official_/name:pt_PT and official_/name:pt_BR?
I think I remember someone using @ instead of _ in those OSM language
codes for these kind of differences, I don't remember if that is
"approved" or anything (possibly it was part of this same thread).
But by all means add both forms (either both in name:pt or separate
tags) so that they become searchable.
Cheers
