Formosan...
"Formosan was the language spoken by the aboriginal
inhabitants
of the area around present-day Tainan, in southwestern Formosa
(Taiwan), where the
Dutch founded a fort in 1624. The
Dutch
mies. mistakenly thought it the only language spoken on
the island. Matthew and John in Formosan were
printed only a
year before the Dutch were expelled by a wave of mainland
Chinese who were fleeing the
Manchu dynasty."--1000 Tongues,
