Adding New Language

When I edit the metadata of a book, I can't add new language. For example, I want to add 'Karen' in Languages area. But if I add like that, Calibre shows Unrecognized Metadata error. How can I add new langauge for that field.

ISO code for Karen is kar ==>> https://datahub.io/core/language-cod...age-codes-full

I think that's what it wants

the only languages recognized by that field come from the ISO 639 standard. If your language is not in that standard you will need to create a customlanguage column to store it.
