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 Categories table and includes the ISO-2 code countries names where that category is supported.
