Remarks	The Name (Global) parse definition parses Arabic names written in the Arabic script and in the Latin script in an equivalent manner. Single-word Arabic names are parsed into Given Name. Western names are parsed according to Western standards.
Remarks	Parse definitions named with the Global keyword use a set of output tokens that is consistent across every locale. Results obtained from these definitions can be stored in the same database fields as the results obtained from definitions of the same name in other locales.
