The language of the Mapuche (Native Americans of Chile) is called Mapudungun, not Mapuche.

Yes, and there is no "Dagestani" language. Dagestan is a multiethnic region with pretty evenly distributed demographics and no "dominant" ethnic group. The main languages of Dagestan are Avar (already in the database), Lak, Lezgian, Kumyk, Dargin, etc… and the list goes on. These languages aren't related to each other (ex. Kumyk is from the Turkic language family while Avar, Lezgian, Lak, etc… are of the Northeast Caucasian family), so I believe they deserve their own categories.
Keep in mind that a "usage" is not necessary a language. It is a language or a culture.
Alright, I see.
