New Inuit language classes target Kitikmeot youth



Nunavut's Kitikmeot Inuit Association is offering courses to get young people in the region learning and using Inuit languages, in an effort to keep them alive.



Inuinnaqtun is the Inuit language spoken in Cambridge Bay and Kugluktuk, while Nattilingmiut, a dialect of Inuktitut, is spoken in Gjoa Haven, Taloyoak and Kugaaruk. All of the communities are located in western Nunavut.
