Displaying a 3 word address

The 3 words address can be entered into an existing field or as its own independent field.
The /// prefix to a what3words address should always be shown. Clarity on how to treat this prefix for right-to-left languages is available here.
The words in a 3 word address when displayed, should always be separated by a full stop (‘.’), except in Japanese which should use the ideographic full stop (‘。’). Please don’t use spaces or commas as word separators. Vietnamese 3 word addresses should be displayed using the spaced version returned by the what3words API. These rules are for display only; for the input of 3 word addresses, there are wider rules available here.
what3words should feel native to your app or website, so we recommend using your existing styling and typography. You can show our slashes ‘///’ in red ( #E11F26 ) or use your primary colour.
If displaying a 3 word address in a secondary language, you only need to display the slashes once. This is so users understand that they both refer to the same address.

A user should be able to enter a 3 word address with or without the ‘///’ at the beginning

Once the user has entered the first letter of the 3rd word the autosuggest feature should be displayed
For simplicity, we recommend only displaying 3 suggested results
Every address should be accompanied by its nearest location.
