对于外语版地图的地名标识问题,争论点主要集中在是采用英文翻译还是全汉语拼音作地名标识。采用汉语拼音作为地名标识符合国家规定,而且还能为制作地图提供便利。为了便于外国人理解,我们可以在地图中用图例来表明各个地理实体。对于不能用图例标注清楚的地理实体,可以在地名标识后添加补充标注。 For the geographical names of foreign language version of the map, the debate is mainly focused on the use of English translation or all Chinese pinyin for place names. Hanyu pinyin as a place name mark in line with national regulations, but also to facilitate the production of maps. In order to facilitate foreigners to understand, we can use the map to indicate the various geographical entities. For geographical entities that can not be clearly marked with a legend, supplementary notations can be added after the place name identifier.
