Kiakui scratchpad

I will not tell you anything about this conlang. I will jsut leave a recording here and let you make hypotheses about my langauge because I want to know what impression people get who have absolutely no idea what Kiakui is or how it works :)

Make educated guesses about the phonology or the grammatical structures or the languages that have inspired me and I will tell you if you are right or wrong. ;)

The phonology sounds likes it's small, or at least not very large, with pretty simple phonotactics.
It sounds like it's tonal and fusional.
I get a strange feeling that African languages were a source of inspiration.

Did I get any of that?

I like the idea, but I think we'd need samples with translations to be able to make any sort of reasonable guesses about grammar.
