[Tagging] landuse=single family houses/apartments

[Peter Wendorff]

  Aside of your question: you should use : instead of . to separate 
language tokens from "normal" tagnames.
And AFAIK it's not a good idea to translate every value like you do it here.
The translations/languages should only apply to names, not on "classes".
If your Application wants to use different languages than English, it 
should use a dictionary for that at client side.
