July 6 – 2008:
On the plane from Ottawa to Iqaluit, I met a man named Jack that lives in Northern Baffin. He taught me a few words of Inuktitut. I’m not sure of the exact spelling but here are the phonetics:
oolakut- goodmorning
qanaweepee- how are you
qanalingee- I’m fine
quannamit (silent ‘t’) – thank you
[Aïnhoa]
