Eskimo–Aleut languages
Eskimo–Aleut languages - brief summary
The Eskimo–Aleut, Inuit-Yupik-Unangax, or Eskaleut (/ɛsˈkæliuːt/) languages are a language family native to Alaska, Nunavut, northern Northwest Territories (Inuvialuit Settlement Region), northern Quebec (Nunavik), northern Labrador (Nunatsiavut), Greenland and far eastern Russia (Chukotka Peninsula). It is also known as Eskaleutian, Eskaleutic or Inuit–Yupik-Unangan. The proper place of one language, Sirenik, within the Eskimo family has not been settled. While some linguists list it as a branch of Yupik, others list it as a separate branch of the Eskimo family, alongside Yupik and Inuit.
