Description

If the language is set to German
language : "de-DE",
then item
Potosí
Potosí, Bolivia
is no longer offered in the suggestion list. But "München" (for Munich)) is.

If the language is set to default, "München" is not on the short list, but Potosí is.

How can I have both "München" and "Potosí, Bolivia" in the search scope?

Done means both München and Potosí, Bolivia are available in the intended search scope without breaking locale-specific results.
