Really interesting to hear how @what3words are tackling location reporting, especially in the emergency services.
Have you heard of/downloaded the app?pic.twitter.com/aI2T20epyc

I put those words into your site and posted the results showing 4 different locations.
The words you entered are not homophones in Malay, so ///pere.pair.pear and ///pair.pair.pair would sound like 2 distinct addresses when pronounced by a Malay speaker. People using the app in English would not get any of the words you shared when trying to locate themselves.

All of the screenshots are the results from searches on your site. The attached example shows the result from pere.pair.pair geocoded to Canada.pic.twitter.com/Hup72ZNPWF

The system has English homophones and that could cause an issue when trying to locate someone. Here's another example: sari.sorry.sorrypic.twitter.com/Pa3bIid7sJ
