A perhaps bizzare question of my own - the Ent's language had all of the "hrooming," in it. Sort of phonetic sounds...are there not tribes in Africa who's languages is made up primarly of clicks and other basic sounds? Could that have been a bit of an inspiration for Entish?

I'm rambling, but I'm curious as to whether anyone knows the inspiration for "Entish" whether I'm anywhere near being right or just incredibly stupid.
