# NAME

Locale::Places - Translate places using http://download.geonames.org/

# VERSION

Version 0.01

# METHODS

## new

Create a Locale::Places object.

Takes one optional parameter, directory,
which tells the object where to find the file GB.csv.
If that parameter isn't given,
the module will attempt to find the databases,
but that can't be guaranteed.

## translate

Translate a city into a different language.

    use Locale::Places;

    print Locale::Places->new()->translate({ place => 'Dover', language => 'fr' });      # Prints "Douvres"
