I have a question, what's the difference between "Inuktikut" and "Inuktitut"? I know they are the same language, but is each term applicable?

Inuktikut? you means "Inuktitut" and "Inuttitut"?

Ah, cuz they are cases assimilation.

-Inuktitun (in West dialects)
-Inuktitut (in middle/some east)
-Inuttitut (in South baffin/Northern Quebec/Labrador/Kalaallisut all eastern inuit dialects)

West dont cases assimilation. but east do.

Let me show you here it is

West Inuktitun / East Inuktitut / inuttitut / Kalaallisut
tuktu / tuktu / tuttu / tuttu "caribou/reindeer"
kaaktuq / kaaktuq / kaattuq / kaattoq "he/she was hungry"
kaakpunga / kaakpunga / kaappunga / kaappunga "i am hungry"
qablu / qallu / qallu /qallu "eyebrow"
umingmak / umingmak / umimmak / umimmak "muskox"
qamngiuyuq / qanngiujuq / qanngiuvuq / qanngiuvoq "snores"
anmaaq / ammaaq / ammaaq / ammaaq "flintstones"
apqun / aqqut / aqquti / aqqut "road/path"
tatqiq / taqqiq / taqqiq / taqqeq "moon"
tanriq / tarngiq / tarngiq / tarneq "soul"
malruk / marruuk / marruuk / marluk "two"
ilvit / ivvit / ivvit / illit (old ivlit) "you"

Kalaallisut using switches from West inuktitun than East Inuktitut/Inuttitut are assimilation
Kalaallisut sometimes assimilaition

etc

Same thing in Latin and Italian. Italian are assimilation
Latin / Italian
Octo / Otto "eight"

BUT Nunavimmiut thinks inuttitut meaning "As like the Inuit" and Inuktitut means "Like a inuk"

Inuttitut is plural and Inuktitut is singular. but i suspect inuttitut is assimilation by kt to tt

lol

Thanks for explaining! I was always wondering what's with this thing calling them sometimes Inuktitun and sometimes Inuktitut or Inuttitut, etc.

And yes, it should be merged with the Greenlandic forum.
