The correct form would be to display the major name larger and the less
important name smaller below and in brackets.
e.g.
Praha
(Prague)
Let's be careful about doing things just because other (less clever)
maps do them. We already have one example of this, in the linear scale
- just as I have no need for miles on the linear scale, I also don't
need to see both Praha and Prague on the map. A much better solution,
IMHO, is to focus on ways of allowing easy switching between favoured
languages as you later allude to.
Yes, but
a) Bilungual maps are helpful also beside the t...@h, so an infrastructure
would be fine.
b) I think we will have some way to go until we have user-choosen
language, so it is also a much more better shortterm solution.
