  • Not in English Language
    Not In the English Language There are many Inuktitut words that do not have English language translations. Many of these words come from the cultural side of the Inuktitut language. An example is snow. There are many words associated with snow. There are many different uses of snow in the Arctic compared to the uses of snow that Southern Canadians are accustomed to. Snow has many uses in the Inuit world – snow to make a shelter, snow considered good or poor for effective tracking of animals, preferred snow for melting drinking water and many others. Because snow was important to the life of Inuit before the arrival of European culture, it was necessary to have many terms to describe the type of snow and to be able to communicate that information to the next generation. Here are some Inuktitut terminologies that may not exist in the English language. It would be helpful to ask a person with Inuktitut as a first language and someone who has received Inuktitut education for further interpretation of the words described below. -parlajuq (par-la-juq): To scramble to get something, (such as in a candy toss) or hurrying to get something before it’s all gone. The term may also be used to describe someone who is scrambling to get what they want (out of greediness or selfishness) even if there is plenty. Snow Words: We live in the world of snow. There are many snow words in Inuktitut. Ask around for terms used in your community for various types of snow. Pukajaaq is the type of snow that does not compact even when compressed – it is made up of crystalized tiny balls of ice and resembles cream of wheat cereal texture.
