I already made sure before via Ethnologue that there is no language of that
name. However, a Altavista search (Google stinks) brings interesting results:
- there seems to be a river, a mountain and a location in Mongolia named
"Choton", but I could find neither in my world atlas.
- It seems to be a Nepalese first name (perhaps also in other countries in
that area). There were many links about a Dr. Choton Basu, a college prof in
WI-Whitewater.
- Choton is a precint of NY!? Someone can confirm that? Found it here:
