ISO 639-3: 
lur

The community refused to use the term "Laura" since it brings connotative meaning. They urge to use the term "Loura". Which is the authentic term of the language. 

Editorial Action

We will change the primary name of this language from Laura to Loura [lur], as a language of Indonesia.  This change will be included in the next edition of the Ethnologue.

Dear Renhard,

Thank you for informing us of the name for this language that the community wants to use.

I will change the primary name from Laura to Loura [lur] for the next edition.

Best wishes,
