6. Old Frisian

Close, close, but not quite... the language in question is Old Norse

Anodyne: Lord's Prayer #9: I know, I know! Arrgh... I've read Mikael Niemi, damnit. It must be Tornedalen Finnish. Meänkieli I think it's called.

Yep, that's right, the beautiful mother tongue of my grandfather

So, every mystery (except #6) solved, congratulations

AE is Corsican, yes.

I can tell you that AA isn't a Slavic language and that AD is a sort of French, but not one of those named yet.

AF is not Austrian.

I guess Z could be a Dutch-Indonesian pidgin (wild guess)?

Correct both of you. AF is Letzebourgian/Luxembourgish.

AD is Haitian Creole, yes.

Z could be some sort of Esperanto spanning several language families. I really don't know.
