Is there any policy on this? How can you tell that {tcadrlondono} is a culture
word? "tcadr-" suggests that it is a city. Isn't it better to assume that the
place structure of a fu'ivla of this type is given by the place structure
of the leading gismu? For the London "culture word" I think {britrlondono} is
much better.

Also: Is there any reason for the final o? If the original word doesn't
end in a vowel, I suggest using the final vowel of the leading gismu, to
make things more standard, so we'd have {tcadrlondonu}, {tcadrbeidjinu},
but {tcadnroma}.
