Note: If nothing is specified, for geographical entities (e.g., city names), we'll fall back to using the language that's most popular in the country for that venue.

Foursquare also supports many country-specific subcategories in our venue categories. "Supported Countries" are listed in our category tree for categories that we think will only apply in certain countries.

Note: Venue name and tips may not be translated.
