Not Arabic or Turkic sounds like Tajik or similar Persic tongue, almost a hint of slavic influence.

The only thing I understand are the greetings in the beginning. I can’t even tell if it’s a Semitic language or just influenced by one. I tried googling for some of the words, but when I don’t know how they are spelt, it’s quite difficult.

Would like to know what the [pʰistuʃ] means just after the middle of the file. It’s so separate from its surroundings.

To my (totally untrained) ears, it sounds like a Slavic language, with several elements of Arab. The greeting suggests one of the Muslim countries that formerly belonged to the USSR.

Ossetic?

The Russian accent here suggests a language socially and politically subordinated to Russian for a lomg period of time. It sounds vaguely Turkic with the high central/high back voewl (I can’t tell without another careful listen). The words are too short for Turkic languages though, and I hear none of the typical pile-ups of grammatical affixes accompanied by vowel harmony. As well, I don’t seem to hear signs of what would sound like the (nearly) exclusively word-final stress typical of Turkic languages. No ejectives, no pharyngeals or long consonant clusters typical of Caucasian-family languages. So that basically, as far as I can see, leaves a language of the formerly Soviet Caucasus north of Armenia and Azerbaijan that is neither Caucasian nor Turkic. Which as far as I know leaves Ossetic or perhaps some other Indo-Iranian language I haven’t thought of.

Here’s a clue – this is a Northeast Caucasian language.

Thanks to Simon’s help it’s clear that it’s one of the 30something languages spoken in the Daghestan region of Russia, but I don’t know which one
Just a guess: Lezgi.

Avar? Or Dargwa or Lak?

Daydreamer – your guess is right – the answer is Lezgi (лезги чӀал), a Northeast Caucasian language spoken mainly in the Russian republic of Dagestan and in northern Azerbaijan.

The recording comes from the GRN.

The Caucasian region: one of the world’s bingo ball bowls of languages! :-)

Imagine living there. Gotta love Dagestan.
