Hi all,
The similarity to BNF Fr. 565 and through it, the potential connection to the Canary Islands is interesting because of Silbo Gomero You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
It's an extant whistling language that encodes Spanish likely using a system derived by that used by the Indigenous people of the Canary Islands. Because it uses whistles it has some unusual properties for an audible language.
And if as seems likely a similar system encoded a language that developed alongside that system, that language, when written, might have some unusual properties of its own.
