				<title>Re:Wrong russian translations for Kyiv, Ukraine</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ I don't speak Russian. They look like cases for Russian declension.
I find 'Почему город Киев называется Киевом?' searching for Киевом.
(="Why is the city of Kyiv called Kyiv?")


In a way it could be useful to have information about cases of geographical names included somewhere. Using flags or even rules?

Best Regards

				<description><![CDATA[ Hi Marc.

Yes, they are declension cases.
The problem is that I use alternateNamesV2.zip from premium subscription data in my scripts and there is no way to figure out which one has common case.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ for the time being I have marked the nominativ case as 'preferred'. This should solve your immediate issue.
However, we need to either come up with a better solution and flag/mark cases and declension properly or remove them altogether.

any ideas?]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Hi Marc,

You're right that understanding the cases used in geographical names can be helpful, especially in languages with complex declension systems like Russian. Knowing how place names change based on their grammatical case can provide context and clarity in translations and communication.

Including information about these cases, either through flags, rules, or perhaps an intuitive guide, could indeed assist users in understanding these variations better. It could be a handy resource for people dealing with multilingual content.
