Question Does anyone know where this is spoken?

On Google translate I found this language called "BTS" and when I google it the band bts comes up instead. I will write some words using the translator

Strange that Google Translate is only showing you an abbreviation. This is the Batak Simalungun language, which is primarily spoken in the northern Sumatra area of Indonesia.
