            Bug ID: 412562
           Summary: Toponyms in the user's language
           Product: marble
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: marble-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: colaboracs at pseudoname.io
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Use user's selected language for toponyms. Not English nor vernacular
languages. For example: Warsaw is the english name for the capital of Poland,
which vernacular name is Warszawa, and the name that appears in Marble even if
your desktop is in other language. But for the rest of the world both names
don't mean much: in italian is "Varsavia", in spanish "Varsovia", in russian
"Варшава", in german "Warschau", and in non latinized areas most of us can't
even read it because it's written like "ਵਾਰਸਾ", "وارسو" or any of the many
alphabets that people use in their respective countries.
If you know Android's app Osmand, it has an option for this, so it's not a
problem with Openstreetmap but a Marble issue.
