Language quiz: answer and poll

The language that I posted about last night is Marshallese (Kajin Majol), the indigenous language of the Marshall Islands. The “ri Majol” are therefore the Marshallese people. Congrats to and .

I cut and pasted the two articles from my source (a PDF of the 25 May edition of Marshall Islands Journal), so the orthography is as used in newspapers.

Actually, that’s a good excuse for a poll:
