What would be the benefit? If I'm looking for a language school I am not interested in finding also dancing schools or driving schools or diving schools, or chess training or basketball training. They also do have almost nothing in common. We don't follow this approach for most other tags neither (e.g. highway=road, road=primary or amenity=shop, shop=grocery). This subtagging idea comes up from time to time, but there is really not much benefit IMHO if the objects are completely different. Subtags should be used to distinguish similar features, e.g. for which language they offer courses, but "training" is really too generic to give any reasonable results if standing alone. cheers, Martin
