Here’s a recording of part of a story in a mystery language.
Do you know or can you guess which language it’s in and where it’s spoken?
Here’s a recording of part of a story in a mystery language.
Do you know or can you guess which language it’s in and where it’s spoken?
My first impression is Dutch, or some language close to Dutch/Flemish, perhaps Saxon?
d.m.f.
I’m also for Dutch or another Dutch like language
sounds a lot like dutch, so… frisian? something like that
I’m pretty sure it’s not Dutch, or I’d understand more of it. I can’t venture a guess as to what it actually is, but my spider senses are telling me it might not be Germanic, despite how it sounds.
I am sure that it is Germanic. I can understand most of the story. Sounds like old Swedish but the intonation is more like Dutch.
My guess is Low German, which I am told, has had a great influence on the Swedish language.
Is it Franconian?
Could it be Afrikaans ?
Is it Flemish?
Frisian.
Maybe North Frisian? It doesn’t sound like Western.
My first guess was Frisian. Which dialect, I have no idea.
It’s West Frisian.
Arakun is right – the language is indeed West Frisian (Frysk), which is spoken mainly in the Dutch province of Fryslan/Friesland.
The recording comes from Lowlands-L.
I would say dutch or flemish …
ok, so I didn’t read through the answers … 🙂
I can understand the words here and there, but I can only get the gist of it. It sounds like an obscure British English dialect.
