Language quiz 15 February 2015 By Simon Here’s a recording in a mystery language. Can you identify the language, and do you know where it’s spoken?
Sounds like one of the languages of the First Nations in Canada or the US. Guess Chris Miller will know better or narrow the choice, at least. Reply
The answer is Oneida (Onʌyotaʼa:ka), a Northern Iroquoian language spoken in southern Ontario in Canada, and in New York state and part of Wisconsin in the USA. The recording comes from the GRN. Reply

I agree that it is Canadian First Nations. Algonquin? Anishnabe?
