Working on "Avenida" prefix (shared between Spanish and Portuguese) I also found a few cases with "de las", "del , "d'", "el ", "la " in Brazil and/or Portugal

Hi Carlos,

In our project here in Brazil (tracksource.org.br <http://tracksource.org.br>), we started using this new feature with the following configuration:
# portuguese
prefix1:pt = "Rua", "Avenida", "Travessa", "Alameda", "Beco", "Praça", "Rotatória", "Via", "Viela", "Estrada"
prefix2:pt = "da ", "do ", "de ", "das ", "dos ", "para "

Gradually and with more tests we should consider the expansion to other prefixes.
With this configuration we obtained a 27 MB reduction in the size of our index file (whole Brazil).

Regards,

Loss

    Fine then, my mistake.  But I still would like to have the title
    corrected ("Portug_u_ese") and "Beco" added.

    Also, I am not sure if "Estrada" and "Rodovia" should be added
    (both mean "Road").  I am currently using both on my maps, but
    they since are not common in urban areas, I am not sure what the
    convention is.

    Best regards,

        Alexandre

    Hi,
    I think with the current code the order really doesn't matter.
    That is also mentioned in the comments.
    Ciao Gerd

    Hola Carlos,

    I see that you are listing the prefixes in alphabetic order.  I
    believe it would be way more efficient to put the most common
    prefixes first.

    For Portuguese, that would be (as I suggested in a previous message):

    -# portugese
    -prefix1:pt = "Rua", "Avenida", "Travessa"
    -prefix2:pt = "da ", "do ", "de ", "das ", "dos "
    +# portuguese
    +prefix1:pt = "Rua", "Avenida", "Travessa", "Alameda", "Beco"
    +prefix2:pt = "da ", "do ", "das ", "dos ", "de ", "d'"
    Saludos,

        Alexandre

    Version mkgmap-r3971 was committed by gerd on Mon, 12 Jun 2017

    - roadNameConfig_v1.patch by Carlos Davida which adds more
    countries and languages
    - Improve comments

    Attached is version 2 of roadNameConfig.patch
    I'm working in the completion of roadNameConfig file. I think if
    I could somehow get a file with the list of road names in a map
    I could advance faster in this task. Is there any tool to get it
    in the display project?
