Module 4: Post 4: Learning Inuit

This is a website that offers online language education materials in different Inuit dialects.  It also offers lessons and translations from both English and French to the Inuit language.  There is an abundant amount of information and interactive lessons on learning vocabulary, grammar, dialogue and practice from beginner to intermediate levels of the language learner.  This allows Inuit peoples who are interested in learning their language to independently practice online for free. I think that an online language tool is not the only answer for helping language revitalization as the daily use of language with community and family is vital.  Also, many people may not have access to computers or fast speed internet to be able to access this information.  However, I think that by providing online educational resources in the Inuit languages is a step in the right direction in helping to support and maintain local Inuit languages.
