The click language (one of them) of Africa

I find this group of languages truly fascinating.  I hope they do not disappear like so many languages have.  There are quite a few that use the clicking and popping sounds.  Thought you might find it interesting.

  1. Have you ever seen the movie “The Gods Must Be Crazy”? It’s about a bushman on the Kalahari. Lots of Koi San click language in that one. Interestingly, that group of people are genetically close to some of the people in Japan.

    I’ve spent some time with Native Americans and loss of their languages is a major concern for those communities.
