Inuktitut is spoken by approximately 38,000 people, primarily Inuit communities in Canada. Written in syllabics, an abugida derived from Cree, Inuktitut is central to Inuit cultural identity and is one of the official languages of Nunavut. Its agglutinative morphology enables the construction of descriptive and context-rich words, reflecting the Arctic environment and lifestyle.
