Inuit language + Grammar

[edit]

I think these articles give a partly false impression of unity among the inuit languages. At the very least the articles overstate the similarity between the languages and give too little space to describe the quite common view that they are not dialects of one "Inuit language" but rather many separate but closely related languages - in effect a dialect continuum.·Maunus·ƛ· 15:39, 25 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Transcription at tautirut?

[edit]

The associated WikiProjects don't get much traffic, so thought is safer to ask here: this dictionary entry[1] shows the word for tautirut, an Inuit fiddle. Is there anyone familiar with this syllabary and the Unicode needed to add this native spelling to the lede of the article? Thanks! MatthewVanitas (talk) 19:52, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"I can't hear very well" / "Tusaatsiarunnanngittualuujunga"

[edit]

This example sentence is exceptionally common and could to come with a polite mention Inuit speakers have some of the highest rates of hearing loss in the world - children in some studies have shown rates of middle ear damage approaching 54%.[2] 121.45.171.107 (talk) 17:44, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The link doesn't work and anything about hearing loss should be in the Inuit article and not here. I don't think that Tusaatsiarunnanngittualuujunga is very common but is in Inuit grammar. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Huliva 19:35, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Article issues

[edit]

Being a "Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment" does not offer any special class. In fact, with "429 editors, 102 watchers, and 6,763 pageviews apparently in the last 13 months, one would figure it would be more closely watched. It is a B-class article (of interest to 9 projects) with two tags. One is for source-related (since August 2013) reference problems. This fails #1 of the assessment criteria and is at risk of being demoted. ---- I forgot to sign this (17:41, May 18, 2021), and apparently, a bot didn't intercede.

92 % of the words in the Nunavut Hansard appearing only once

[edit]

What is the source for that claim? I've been trying to find it, but I've never found a valid source, only the claim itself (both English- and German-language Wikipedia) and people copypasting this claim into their own article. Огненный ангел (talk) 13:31, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
