ooo... the only reason i said that is because aeetlcreejl said that "Caxa" was the name of the river, and into the latin alphabet the translation would be "Saha" or "Sakha".

Oh. I thought he said "Янцзы" (Yangtze) was the name of a river.

Who has something else to post?

Looks like intentionally English-esque nonsense. Is it a similar language from somewhere in the British Isles?

Not nonsense. "Intentional" is true. I imagine that "English-esque" was an accidental artifact. But rather than "nonsense", it is intended (if I understand correctly) to be different from English. Though it's certainly English-esque.
Tolkien_Freak wrote:

No, it's from North America, more specifically from the United States thereof. IIANM it is from somewhere in California. I don't know whether or not it predates California's entry into the Union, but it certainly is more recent than the formation of the Union and than the settlement of California by Anglos.

(BTW I did something Aeetlcreeljesque; I included the name of the language in the text.)

Boont/Boontling. I was going to guess Boont and searched Wikipedia to see if Boont was actually anything, is that illegal?

Oh, and the indigenous people - either Hokkaido or Sakhalin, though probably Sakhalin considering the Ainu are on the southern half. I'm going with Sakhalin.

I've forgotten what "Boontling" means, but it is a good Boont word.
Boont is the name of the language.
Speaking Boont is called "Harpin' Boont".

Well, the word "Boont" was part of the text, just as the word "Sakha" (though in Cyrillic) was part of your texgt.

Yes, it's Sakhalin.

I'm going to guess Central Pomo.
If it's not some kind of Pomo I'll guess Wintu.
If that's wrong too I'll guess Kwakiutl.
And if that's still wrong I'm going to go with Salishan.

If none of that gets it, I'll ask:
(*) Is it spoken in the United States?
(*) Or in Canada?
(*) or in Mexico?
(*) or in Meso-America?
(*) or in South America?

If it's spoken in the United States, I'll ask:
(*) Is it spoken in California?
(*) Or in Washington?
(*) or in Oregon?
(*) or in the Desert Southwest?
(*) or west of the Rockies?
(*) or west of the Mississippi?
(*) or north of the Mason-Dixon Line?
