Hi there
I have been looking for the word which means that signs and notices at the airport are obvious , clear to understand.
Can we say that airport is labelled well just like a suitcase. Is there a similar verb to cover the meaning as regards the airport and other public places ? For you native speakers the question is a piece of cake so please answer my question.

Hi Monder, not sure if there �s anything specific. I would just say, �It �s very clearly signposted. � |

As an American, I �ve never heard signposted, although it �s not difficult to figure out. I would say the signs are clearly marked, myself. |

Actually, in the specific case of an airport, a more natural utterance would be �The information is very clearly displayed. � Maybe? |

Thank you for your answers. Moody Moody I �ve come across marked in a dictionary but I haven �t been sure whether it is correct.I am glad you �ve decided to write the word. Now I can be 100 % sure that is safe to say that signs are clearly marked. Cunlife I really like your suggestion and I presume it �s BE. |

Signposted must be British - I use it constantly |
