We only have limited vocabulary for dealing with street addresses
(Sep, yoS, veng). In Star Trek they mostly use transporter
coordinates, but sometimes they must still have to send someone to a
street (or what is called a postal) address, right?

If you had to translate the labels on an address input device, how
would you render the following into Klingon? (I have a good idea for
most of them, but I don't know how best to ask for a "street address",
since I have no idea what a "street" is in Klingon.)

Country
Region
City
Province
State (i.e., US State)
Suburb
District
Street
Street Address
Postal code
ZIP code
Post office box
Floor number
Apartment number
Island

Localised/regional/specialised variants of the above:
Administrative area, locality, parish, department, emirate, prefecture, etc.
