Just curious but why do the squares in other countries have English words rather than native words users there would find easier to say? For example, the Arc de Triomphe is surfaces.rots.talker which would not be easy to say with a French accent.
Hello John, what3words covers the world in English so English speakers can benefit from communicating precise locations wherever they are. The system exists in 37 languages so French people would use ///acceptant.détente.gérons, which describes the same location.

Ok. So if I'm abroad can emergency services find me from the English words? Especially as while I can change the app's language and read the French words I can't read other scripts like Arabic or Japanese.
