If you know about the current state of affairs, please help keep everyone informed by updating this information

This page attempts to provide translations of words used in the map data tags. It may still be useful, however it is only linked from the Labels page which is under-used and largely obsolete.

This is all replaced by the Map Features pages, which has been translated (use language links at the top of that page). Within the translated comments you should hopefully find all the explanation you need for these preferred tagging words, hence no need for this dictionary.
