From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

I see no particular reason not to introduce a general "(language)" dab term, personally. The thing is that for alien languages, there's all kinds of instances where we absolutely cannot have the people/species be the one that gets the dab term. We can't have "Gallifreyan" be about the language, let alone "Dalek". Since we're bound to have Gallifreyan (language) and "Dalek (language)", might as well make it consistent. Is my take.
