Hat note

Latest comment: 4 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The hat note in the previous version was too wordy and had the link to Language, which is not the primary topic here (not quite irrelevant, only a small section pertains to the topic). Most people in search of the word "tongue" would most likely be the anatomy. People would search language on its own. I added a simple {{other uses}} template to direct users to the tongue disambiguation page, a standard practice on wiki (which happens to contain the Language link).
