Answer:

COBOL(Common Business Oriented Language).As the name suggests it is most commonly used to develop business tools and hence it is called a professional language and it is not used in schools or colleges as a teaching tool like FORTAN hence it is not called a taught Language.

COBOL is also used to develop business applications.It is mainly designed for businesses.
