All of the proposed solution to this situation are all fine for the
English language... Which is a huge problem to me.... I am using TMG in
french, where I need to use "à" or "au" depending on the location....
For example, "à Québec" means "in Québec City". "Au Québec" means "in
the Province of Québec". Grammatically, I can't say "à Canada", I must
say "au Canada" and in reverse, I can't say "au Shédiac", as to be "à
Shédiac"..... The proposition used varies depending on the Place....
Don't see how I could create a sentence structure to handle this...
