Inuinnaqtun is a dialect of Inuktitut, an indigenous Inuit language.
This dictionary was developed by teachers of Inuinnaqtun and community elders to fill the need for a dictionary reflecting the local dialect. The dictionary includes both Inuinnaqtun to English and English to Inuinnaqtun translations.
To accurately reflect the pronunciation of the language, the Inuit Cultural Institute standard of spelling has been used.
This workbook is divided into a series of “units”: the alphabet, vocabulary, sentences, grammar, capitalization, punctuation, composition, and study skills and composition. Answers are provided at the back of the book.
There are also sections “For the Tutor,” which provides additional information or hints for the tutors.
