[OSM-talk] Introduction and a name key language question

[Ali Lakrakbi]

Hi,

I am having the same problems in all names!

I am mappign Morocco and street/city names are originaly in arabic,
but for non arabic speakers we use common latin naming.

how should it be tagged?

name:ar=مراكش
name: la= marrakech

is that the right way?
