The removement of those strings is done from the end, it stops when a word is found that should not be deleted. This is what I described as 1a) here: http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/pipermail/mkgmap-dev/2017q2/026584.html
This approach won´t work on any Latin language (Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French), where you should start removing from the beginning instead. Alexandre

Hi Alexandre, my understanding of the previous discussion was that this is too risky / not usefull. If you have a road name like "Rue Noble", would you really want to remove the first word? My understanding is that the user would find nothing if he starts typing Rue.

Hi Gerd, when you input street name in Mapsource, there is following advice at the top of the form: Entrez "Principale" plutôt que "Rue principale nord" So maybe it would work ;) I agree, that prefixes aren't a big problem. There is full name after prefix and user simply have to continue writing. Not the same for suffix, where we get multiple hits without any chance to select a proper one. -- Best regards, Andrzej
