The language of the geographic name source should be distinguished from the language of origin or etymology of a geographic name; for example, considering the place name 'San Jose, California' the language of the source of this geographic name may be English if it is determined from a United States map, regardless of the fact that this geographic name means 'St. Joseph, California' in Spanish.

aluminum | 2 A light silvery ductile and malleable metal, not readily tarnished by air, which is a chemical element, atomic number 13. (Symbol Al.)
brick | 3 Clay kneaded, moulded, and baked or sun-dried, used as a building material.
concrete | 4 A heavy-duty building material made from a mixture of broken stone or gravel, sand, cement, and water, that forms a stonelike mass on hardening.
masonry | 8 Building materials (for example: stone, brick, concrete, hollow-tile, concrete block, gypsum block, or other similar building units or materials and/or a combination of the same) bonded together with mortar to form a structure (for example: a wall, a pier).
fibreglass | 5 Any material consisting of glass filaments woven into a textile or paper, or embedded in plastic, for use as a construction or insulation material.
metal | 9 Any of the class of substances that are characteristically lustrous, ductile, fusible, malleable solids and are good conductors of heat and electricity. For example, gold, silver, copper, iron, lead, tin, and certain alloys (as brass and bronze).
iron | 7 A malleable, magnetic, readily oxidizable metal which is a chemical element of the transition series, atomic number 26. (Symbol Fe.) Occurs abundantly in certain ores and in meteorites, and is widely used, chiefly in alloys such as steel.
prestressedConcrete | 12 Reinforced concrete in which internal stresses have been introduced to reduce potential tensile stress in the concrete resulting from loads.
reinforcedConcrete | 13 Poured concrete containing steel bars or metal netting to increase its tensile strength.
stone | 16 Pieces of rock or mineral substance (other than metal) of definite form and size, usually artificially shaped, and used for some special purpose. Used, for example, for building, for paving, or in the form of a block, slab, or pillar set up as a memorial and/or a boundary-mark.
steel | 15 Any of numerous artificially produced alloys of iron containing up to 3 percent of other elements (including less than about 2.2 percent carbon) and having great strength and malleability. Able to be tempered to many different degrees of hardness. Used for making tools, weapons, and/or machinery.
treatedTimber | 17 A timber that has been impregnated with chemicals (for example: cresote oil) to reduce damage from wood rot and/or insects. Often used for the portions of a structure that are likely to be in ongoing contact with soil and/or water.
wood | 18 The hard, compact, fibrous substance of which the roots, trunks, and branches of trees and shrubs consist. Consists largely of secondary xylem, which forms the strengthening and water-transporting tissue of the plant.
