Remarks If an address string contains a street number followed by either a barangay or a neighborhood, the complete barangay or neighborhood name is parsed into the Street token. Common in the provinces, the barangay/neighborhood functions like street name information in such cases, as seen in the final two examples above.

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.
