Background
Nankôre, from the words nan ("man, human") and kôre ("speech"), is spoken by the Nanhoshka people of Koya Island.
I'll get back to Nankore later to make it conform to the language format policy. For now, here's a sample text:
Atemana uyasi, mahun teyaroa teh hekaci u tempa wasin te taa'. Okaaka ta techam aci tah sinehne ka ante ta anene yoopani ta asin te taa. Ta hekaci taa. Cis ani taa'. Un kayo taa pahke te oman kusuan.
