subdivisionTypeLabelfunction
The word for a kind of subdivision. Given a subdivision's code, its own kind ("JP-13" is "metropolis", 都); given a country's code, the kind most of its first-level subdivisions are ("JP" is "prefecture", 県). In English the kind's name with spaces; in Japanese the word the names of that kind in that country end in.
