Keep, assuming it is the same thing as "Godavari dialect" per above comment, and I assume it includes both "East Godavari dialect" and "West Godavari dialect", some English sources: Mohan Lal (1992). Encyclopaedia of Indian Literature: Sasay to Zorgot. Sahitya Akademi. p. 4075. ISBN 978-81-260-1221-3. "His (P. S. Subrahmanya Sastri's) stories run into twelve volumes, written in the native idiom of the East Godavari dialect."; Mikhail Sergeevich Andronov (1970). Dravidian Languages. Nauka Publishing House, Central Department of Oriental Literature. p. 20. "Five dialects may be distinguished in Telugu: the dialect of the eastern districts (Guntur, Krishna, Godavari)..."
