  1. Very interesting. Sounds somewhat north African but there are a few times I thought I heard retroflex R from India. Sounss to be a religious topic as I thought I heard their version of the names “Moses” and “Jewish” (Musa and Jehudin).

  2. this doesn’t fully sound semitic to me (i could be off on that), sounds a bit like some of the nilo-saharan languages i’ve heard from sudan/south sudan in general sound, and yeah hank is spot on with the religious figures, i picked that up too.

  3. I think it’s Afro-Asiatic, possibly even Semitic, or at least influenced by such a language.
    I think I hear some words that sound Arabic to me, such as ‘Sina’ (Sinai), ‘hukuma’ (government) and ‘yahud(en)’ (Jew/s).

  4. I like the Semitic idea too, though now that I’ve seen Arjun’s comment I might get behind the Nilo-Saharan idea, maybe something like Kunama or Berta.
