Listen to this!

Our KKG language instructor, JJ, agreed to videotape this greeting so that you could hear the unique sounds of his “clicking” Khoikhoi language.

KKG and its variants are spoken by the Nama, the Damara and the San peoples (aka “Bushmen of the Kalahari”). I encourage you to read this Wikipedia article about KKG to learn more.
