Subject: Information about language name


On one of our projects, we are asking parents to indicate the language of
their child, and a father indicated that his child was born in India and
spoke Belagu. I have been unable to find such a language name. Sometimes
people will put down the name of the town or area they come from and say
they speak that language, but I can't find a place of that name either.
Can someone help?

Thanks!
