            <h1>Inuit Language</h1>

            <p>
                Inuktitut, the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inuit_languages">
                Inuit language</a>, is one of the few remaining cultural traditions the
                Inuit have been able to preserve.  In Inuktitut, the language of the
                Inuit people, "Inuit" means "the people".  There are many variations
                of Inuktitut that vary from region to region, however the root of the
                language is constant.
            </p>

            <p>
                Inuktitut is very complex and structured very differently than what
                most western civilizations are used to.  Words are very long and often
                feature "swallowed" consonants. Unlike other languages that string
                small words together to make meaning, Inuktitut uses intricate pieces
                locked together to produce an entire meaning. The study of the Inuit
                language is difficult since there is very little research conducted
                on this particular topic.
