Is this the official orthography or did you replace <ə>'s with <e>'s for easier typing?protondonor wrote:Aya, fagwalakw wende aka. A ba ujek a damaw a ya. Aaw! Wala anta tuwah deydey.

Re: Guess The Language!!!
My source says that this is the official alphabet, insofar as there is one. The <e> is original. <ə> appears in the official orthography, just not in the selected portion of the sample text.
Re: Guess The Language!!!
Would you post another sample with <ə>?
Edit: Also is it North (Gravina 2014)?

I'm certain, after a bit of research, that it's one of the Mascoian languages. I found this PDF on Wikipedia.
I can already narrow it down to one of Sanapaná, Guaná or Toba based on example 12 in it, which has verb + peya', a construction that clearly occurs in your text.
I'm quite certain it's one of those three, but I can only guess haphazardly which of them. The only thing I found was that the word ma', which occurs in the text only shows up in the PDF for the Guaná (Kaskihá) language. So that's my guess.

Colville-Okanagan. I'm sure I heard this song, it's called something like "Over the house".
EDIT: I found the song I meant. It's called "Up on the housetop". I'm still not sure if the sample is from it.
