The POI definitions in the [OpenStreetMap Wiki](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/) help finding the most suitable translation. Both POI files should be kept in sync, so make sure that every category name is also contained in the coresponding search keyword list. Strings in _categories.txt_ should, however, not contain common tokens like e.g. Shop, Store or Center as separate words.

Language codes used are from [ISO 639-1 standard](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes).
If a string is not translated into a particular language then it falls back to English or a "parent" language (e.g. `es-MX` falls back to `es`).
