I'd like to make a suggestion: what if we didn't include a sample of the language? This would allow better-known languages to be done, and may increase the accessibility of the game without outside resources.

This is just an idea, but I think it could work well.

There are like 10000 languages on earth. With pure perfect dichotomization (near best case scenario) it would take 13 questions (26 posts, or three pages) to reach the answer. Bad idea imo.


Some sentences from a grammar I have:

Yi hópw fáyiliwaw. Ya a hángwaw ikenah, ya mwerán fáyiliwaw. Hi pwe laa mwo ttow anar wula. Ra a lé iya yówoton imw een. Ngaang iy a noono llón imwán pin ŕeen fááyiteeŕ. Yifa wókúmw ttow, yi pwe wókowók lee ló wayilé, yi hópw wókúniy. Hi pwe pwiipwi. Wú ya feyenngaw ŕeen ewe kolaak. Yi waawa waa we wóómw.

I feel yous'll get this quick

Nang see missi. Tee su illa mining tasi. Qar tappa! Hing maxara aqqa, nang apa. Wai, nii quang suma talaqa mia. Ping hafi gamu yungyung ni, gagga kili tamahacci saqqa oli. Nang nei maxara danna yedda. Mudda su ga'a haranna? Nang tee su taxanna gonaraqqo. Alla lamma hathagu ong kung halafi. Gang maloo gamuia ba, ge'ing malaqqas. Ging imaraqqu ganei ganang athang garui. Hala utha glala, sangi e'endaga.
