The land of the
Trilinga.[1]
In Andhra Kaumudi, a Telugu grammar book, it was mentioned that
Godavari, since which time the Telugu country has been named Trilingam.[2]
"Trilinga" changed to "Telinga" over time and gradually again to "Telangana". Usage of "Telangana" was designated to distinguish the predominantly Telugu-speaking region of the erstwhile Hyderabad State from its predominantly Marathi-speaking one, Marathwada. After Asaf Jahis ceded the Seemandhra region to the British, the rest of the Telugu region retained the name Telangana and the other parts were called Madras Presidency's Circars and Ceded.[3]
