Can you identify the language, and do you know where it’s spoken?

I think I hear some sounds that remind me of Vietnamese but there seems to be no tones (which I understand don’t exist in Khmer). I’d guess Khmer but I think I am wrong. Might be an indigenous language of Brazil? I also must say that I can’t find the results of the previous quiz. Was it taken off before I could find it? And what was the language? Sounded Sinitic.
The answer of last week’s quiz is Gan (赣语 / 江西话), a variety of Chinese spoken mainly in Jiangxi province in southeastern China.
It seems to me like a Mongolic language like Daur, but … who really knows what it is…because for exaple, we always go wrong with Caucasic languages…
The answer is Woleaian, a Micronesian language spoken mainly in Woleai, part of the East Caroline Islands in Yap State in the Federated States of Micronesia.
