Re: Another unknown language

It's just nonsense, randomly generated, and put there to trap googlers. 
Especially googlers cuz all the pages reference one another. Try googling on 
some of the common words, like othe ethe athe. You'll find yourself back at 
rankorder. (Actually, I think you can find those three in Xhosa, but 
rankorder's not in Xhosa.)

I mean, it's possible that there's a language only represented by one site, 
full of 301000 pretty much identical pages, and that has the common 
sequences "the the the" and "of of of". But it's not one I'll take much time 
deciphering.
