For a while, I thought Kiswahili or Isixhosa or ǃXóõ were the linguae purarum...

I'm not sure what the second one of those is... or the third... without the necessity of google searching...

Any language, other than artificial ones that have been made to be unique, share some basic vocabulary with another or some grammar. People tend to communicate with each other, even if they don't speak the same language, and this leads to a fair bit of vocabulary swapping and grammar breakdown. Even conlanguages can be impure, but Klingon was made by Marc Okrand to be as alien as he possibly could.
