In the summer months the Netsilik would hunt Caribou on the tundra.

  1. Inuit grammar

    Indigenous Peoples of Canada The Inuit language , like other Eskimo Aleut languages, has a very rich morphological system, in which a succession of different morpheme s are added to root words to indicate things that, in languages like English, would require several words to express. See also Agglutinative language and Polysynthetic language All Inuit language words begin with a root morpheme to which other morphemes are suffixed. The language has hundreds of distinct suffixes, in some dialects as many as 700. Fortunately for the learners, the language has a highly regular morphology. Although the rules are many, and sometimes very complicated, they do not have exceptions in the sense that English and other Indo European languages do. This system makes words very long, and potentially unique. For example, in Nunavut Inuktitut tusaatsiarunnanngittualuujunga I can t hear very well. This long word is composed of a root word tusaa to hear followed by five suffixes table tr th tsiaq th td well td tr tr th junnaq th td be able to td tr tr th nngit th td not td tr tr th tualuu th td very much td tr tr th junga th td 1st pers. singular present indicative non specific td tr table Note the consonant sandhi see Inuit language phonology and phonetics Consonant sandhi Inuit ... before it.
