Download or read book The Language of the Inuit written by Louis-Jacques Dorais and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The culmination of forty years of research, The Language of the Inuit maps the geographical distribution and linguistic differences between the Eskaleut and Inuit languages and dialects. Providing details about aspects of comparative phonology, grammar, and lexicon as well as Inuit prehistory and historical evolution, Louis-Jacques Dorais shows the effects of bilingualism, literacy, and formal education on Inuit language and considers its present status and future. An enormous task, masterfully accomplished, The Language of the Inuit is not only an anthropological and linguistic study of a language and the broad social and cultural contexts where it is spoken but a history of the language's speakers.
