@Mandalorian Khoisan is not Xhosa. These two tribes are over 1000km (600mi) and never had any contact with them. Khoisan is around Upington while Xhosa East London and Bisho.
Khoisan is a very, very, very interesting choice. There are not too many native speakers left. Almost all the sounds are based on clicks.
Xhosa (there is a click in its name when pronounced correctly, as indicated by the "Xh"-sound.)
I have heard in person both languages, when I lived in South Africa unitl 2020. Good luck in finding any material on Khoisan.
