Changing language on navigation screen

[Tuareg]

I want to change my navigation screen into English as all the location names are in Greek. The rest of the infotainment system is in English already. I couldn't find a specific language option in the navigation screen, anyone seen it?

To the left of the space-bar on the navigation screen's keyboard is a globe icon. Tap that and it cycles through the languages.

Yes, that changes the keyboard and the search function but the map still remains displaying Greek town/city/street names. There must be something 'above' the keyboard level to change map display names unless I need to get new maps installed maybe?

Maybe something to do with Map & VR Data?

It looks to me that Cyprus is almost a bilingual country, with many signs in English, and some in Greek, according to a very quick search with Google street maps. Of course, you're the expert on this. My wild guess is that the mappers decided to choose one language, and the official language is presumably Greek, so that's what they used.

They may have no facility for translating names into another language. In this case it might be possible to transliterate names letter by letter (so 'ρ' -> 'r' always, and so on), but I have no idea how well that would work.

I would imagine that Cypriots would be familiar with both English and Greek alphabets; is that not the case? I'm assuming that most Cyprus names don't have a distinct English (anglicised) name.

Please pardon my ignorance of these things.

What about Turkish?

What about Turkish?

As far as I know, I saw no Turkish signs.

But I saw no street signs in any language.

North of the green line, as I understand it, is the Turkish area and I'm just assuming they speak Turkish there mainly. Turkish forum members would have a clearer answer.
