Terminology on Climate Change
INTRODUCTION
The quality of the relationship between Inuit and their natural surroundings is reflected in the richness of the Inuit language as it relates to the Arctic environment. Over time, Inuit have developed a highly specialized and sophisticated vocabulary to describe components of the natural world that are of direct relevance to their survival and well-being. However, there are often no equivalents in Inuktitut or Inuinnaqtun to describe related scientific concepts or processes. As such, much of the climate change debate that is relayed in Nunavut communities involves scientific terminology that can be difficult to comprehend, both conceptually and linguistically, for Inuit who have nonetheless been witnessing, and adapting to, climatic and environmental changes for years.
The identification, development, and consistent use of accurate, standardized terminology related to climate change in Inuktitut and Inuinnaqtun is essential to bridge communication gaps between Nunavut communities and scientists, and to ensure the meaningful involvement of Inuit in Northern climate change strategies and initiatives. The importance of communication is further compounded by the fact that a significant proportion of Nunavut Inuit are unilingual and must rely on the Inuktitut/Inuinnaqtun rendering of climate change terms and concepts. Refining Inuktitut and Inuinnaqtun terminology will minimize the inaccuracies in interpretation and translation that can significantly affect Inuit perceptions of, and involvement in, climate change research efforts and debates in Nunavut.
To address these challenges, Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated and the Government of Nunavut co-hosted a terminology workshop in Iqaluit, October 2005. Speakers of all of Nunavut’s main dialect groups participated in developing Inuktitut and Inuinnaqtun equivalents of approximately 90 English terms related to climate change. Two smaller workshops in Iqaluit and Kugluktuk followed within a month to develop an additional 40 terms. The results of both workshops are contained in this glossary.
The organizers of the workshop would like to thank the following participants:

West Nile virus: A virus found mainly in very warm regions, but that has been spreading to more areas in the last ten years. It usually only affects birds, but a human can also become infected after being bitten by a mosquito that carries the blood of a diseased bird. Although most of the time the effect is limited to flu-like symptoms, humans can sometimes become sick or even die after being infected.
