Beginning with the Stochastic Language Identifier, it identified the
sentence as being Portuguese.

Portuguese????
<Bong> Obviously wrong. I may not know a lot about languages but I
can see that is definitely NOT Portuguese. :-)
Next I tried the MLTT Language Identifier and I thought it's answer was
more credible:

Lithuanian_Cp1257
Yes, Lithuanian. I can buy that. :-)
Let's see if we can get confirmation. Here is another Language
Identifier:

--results--
The sample you submitted scored most highly against: Lithuanian with a
score of 0.0258.**
The next three highest scoring language references are:
Hausa (score 0.0245).
Choctaw (score 0.0237).
Maori (score 0.0232).
**WARNING: The sample of text you submitted was too small to provide a
reliable result. The top scoring result may not reflect the actual
language of the sample. See Interpreting the Scores for a detailed
explanation.

So it would seem that odds are your language is Lithuanian, although we
cannot be 100 percent sure. Maybe you already had a hunch it was a
Baltic Language.
