Every word in your Inupiaq reading passage is clickable. Get English translations and grammar help — vital for breaking apart polysynthetic words.
Type any topic and LingoBear generates a fresh Inupiaq reading passage — useful for learners outside Alaska.
Inupiaq (Iñupiatun) is an Inuit language of the Eskimo–Aleut family, spoken across northern and northwestern Alaska. About 3,000 people speak it, mainly elders, with revitalisation programmes in Utqiagvik (Barrow), Kotzebue and other Iñupiaq communities. In 2014 Inupiaq was recognised as one of 20 official languages of Alaska.
Modern Inupiaq uses a Latin-based orthography developed in the 1970s at the University of Alaska, with extra letters ḷ, ł, ñ, ŋ, ġ and ġ to represent specific Iñupiaq sounds. Like other Inuit languages it is polysynthetic — a single word can encode subject, object, mood and many derivational concepts — and it uses ergative–absolutive alignment in the verb.
