Yes, A. By and large (and, of course, there are exceptions), English does not run two words together to form one word in the same way that German does. Something like "tidalflat" is unlikely to be English. (The Americans have a nasty habit of making portmanteau words like "staycation" from "stay" and "vacation", but arguably they don't speak English either. ;) ) cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://gis.638310.n2.nabble.com/looking-for-native-speaker-opinion-tidal-tidalflat-tidal-flat-tp7024016p7024406.html Sent from the Tagging mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
