[Tagging] Country names

[john at jfeldredge.com]

How would you handle the situation of what is on the sign being in more than one character set, such as a sign being labeled in both English (in Roman letters) and Arabic (in Arabic letters)?  From photos I have seen, this is not uncommon in large cities, in countries where the local language or languages use non-Western scripts.

Copy what is done in Belgium.

name = Rue Bouganville - Bouganville Street
