Here's a hint: this language is the lingua franca of a South American country. Edited by Jt00 on 26 July 2012 at 4:39am 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Looks like no one will get this one – it’s a Mon-Khmer language called Pray. The text was taken from an article by Somsonge Burusphat in the journal Mon-Khmer Studies, the full text of which is available online.
Here’s another one: E haere ana te wahine ki te moana. ‘The woman is going to the sea.’ 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Actually it's Maori, although the words for woman and sea seem to be identical for the two languages.

Ah yes, I should have known it wasn't Hawaiian, as Hawaiian lacks both R and T.
