In my opinion there's no single solution for atypical cases, yet it's sane to start with defaults. It can be used on many levels and region can have more than one language defined, just like Janjko has shown: Country A - official_language=hr Region B - official_language=hr;it City C - official_language=it When a data consumer tries to find what is the official language for street D, she finds that city C uses "it", so it's enough to know that the street should be also in "it". Speaking of regions this is the proper handling in my opinion - in region B you can for example use both languages or choose the one you prefer, it's up to you. But we don't have to stop with level 2, 4, or 6. If - for some reason - part of the city is different and we have no way to show the borders of the area, one can add official_language=* for the streets or objects in this particular area. Of course instead of official_language we may use default_language=* or common_language=* tag or something similar, the same as the users have to choose common name for name=*. This way we can always assume some language for the (administrative) area, but if it's not true locally, we can be more specific, up to the single objects. -- "My method is uncertain/ It's a mess but it's working" [F.
