+1 Take this shop for instance (businesses like this are quite common in Germany and presumably in other countries as well, they are raising trouts and selling them). http://www.forellenzucht-rameil.de/Hofladen.html shop=seafood would seem very strange for this. All shops that are far away from the sea and sell local products are not well covered by shop=seafood (IMHO). fishmonger was the earlier tag and had no such problems, I really don't see good reasons to deprecate it. If you look at the voting results http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/seafood_shop you can see that this tag was formally rejected because of missing participation ;-) I like the fishmonger word better, but I understand seafood is an easier > word for non-native english speakers. > I am not sure it really is easier for non-natives. Are you a native? I am not, but back in school we learned the word fishmonger (because we studied British English of course). My guess is that most people who learn English as an additional language will be taught British English. It is them who have the older Empire ;-) cheers, Martin
