Re: Name That Language!
I know your interests.
Further on that note, I have a hunch that it’s from the Sogeram family. Is that correct?

Re: Name That Language!
Yeah, I realised this on looking further into it. The sample text has no ⟨ŋ⟩, which would be unlikely for a Sogeram language.
Is it at least Trans–New Guinea?

Re: Name That Language!
Pity, Torricelli was going to be my next guess too.
Is it by any chance spoken in north-western New Guinea?
EDIT: Let’s stipulate that ‘north-western New Guinea’ includes Papua and Central Papua provinces.

Re: Name That Language!
He already said it’s not TNG.
EDIT: wow, apparently there are two Namias in New Guinea.
EDIT EDIT: no, the TNG one is Namiae. I should learn to read.

Re: Name That Language!
In any case, Namia seems unlikely to me. Could it be Border?
