Hi @ChathuraL

 

Go to Google Maps Menu and Click Language to see if your language is there or not. If there is one than click it, the map will change into your language.

 

Thanks.

Need not to be worry about it bro. 

@ChathuraL

I hope you know the process of adding new road or edit road on map. 

In your native or regional language where you want to edit, can take more time than usual. 

So I recommend you to plz add in English. After few days you'll find the name in regional language. I mean Google translating all name in regional language. 

 

Happy mapping

Hello @ChathuraL

I think you are able to Suggest Name In your Native Language on Google Maps, but make sure your Language is Supported / Listed In Google Maps and Your Selected place.

To see, Supported Languages in Google Maps, Follow Steps : 

  1. On your computer, open Google Maps.
  2. In the top left, click the Menu .
  3. Choose Language.
  4. Select a language.

Suggest Name In Your Native language : 

Step #1 :On your computer, open Google Maps.

Step #2 Select Place.

Step #3 Select Suggest an Edit.

Step #4 Suggest Name in Your Native Language.
