I know a lot of people here in Russia, aged anywhere between 10 - 60, who are in some way severely limited in opportunities because they do not speak English. I'd advise learning it as a must - it simply "opens too many doors" to be ignored

No, frankly, I usually see clearly that's it's an arrow only when I come rather close - before that it's just some small, green light left to the main traffic lights. The thing is, I DO NOT NEED to distinguish that it's a left arrow, becaus

Better, do not show the most irrelevant tags (those in the smallest font size) at all - no one will look through three screens of small text anyway. P.S. I realized there are actually some search results below only after adding a third tag
