Language Quiz 8 October 20237 October 2023 By Simon Here’s a recording in a mystery language. http://www.omniglot.com/soundfiles/blog/quiz081023.mp3 Do you know or can you guess the language?
A tough one indeed. I heard names that sound English and/or Spanish. Perhaps and Arawakan language from the Caribbean?
The language is indeed Carolinian (Refalúwasch), a Micronesian language spoken in the Northern Mariana Islands. The recording comes from YouTube
