 ok...here is thing...i went to www.ekantipur.com and a small tab above site always says " this site in Hindi ..would you like to translate to english?" im like wtf... i know there is www.bbc.co.uk which recognises nepali language and there are options you can see the site in nepali language but when i go to my our national news website such as ekantipur ...google fails to recognize our language...i even tried to report there is an error and tried to tell what language it is but i am only allowed to select from few language where nepali is not even listed...i know there nepali listed in google.com/transliterate but why our own nepali sites are recognized as hindi and not nepali...and i cant even report the error because like i said i can only select few language from the drop down menu...i dont even know how to report that error....does anyone know how to report this to  google? this is not right at all....we all being nepalese should report this issue to google...for others besides nepalese going to the site might start thinking we are indians or our language is hindi...please somebody tell me how to correct this crap. thank you in advance...if you know how to correct it please all nepalese report this error which is not only embarrasment to our language but our own soverign existence and influence of india from our identity...thanks again

I report it as: This web page is actually in {List} Other Language - {type} Nepali. But no effect so far. Hopefully sometime in future.
