Something really cool is how universal sports, and often some form of "ball game" is, typically with some kind of specific rules and design put into how it's played. I hear the Aztecs had their own ball game as well.
The Smithsonian representative should learn to pronounce Inupiaq. It isn't in-OO-pee-at, but sort of a cross between IN-oo-pak and IN-oo-pyak. The accent is on the first syllable, not the second, and the "i" is almost silent. It isn't pronounced as an extra syllable as he is saying it, but instead modifies the "a" sound to give almost a "y" sound before it, although it is very short. This also goes for the word Inupiat: it is pronounced somewhere in between IN-oo-pat and IN-oo-pyat.
up north sound different than bering strait. even Kauwerangmiuttun sound different than Kingikmiuttun. ask Evik Okbaok he kangisqsi and good resource for culture... Koyukmiut and Unalaklikmiut sound so different even than Fish river's i can't pronounce alot of theirs.... Ukiuvokmiut and Inaliqmiut stress so different growing up in Wales i always thought Diomede relatives and King Island relatives visiting were nuunuqing me... scolding... when i went to Lavrentiya in Siberia I was scolded because i responded to them in Inupiaq where our host families are Inupiaq russians the majority were yupiget
Hope is cheap how can we restore the atmosphere? Ive met an Inupiaq, cracked, shattered but someone trying here making it, like a Bel Air coyote. everyone is worlds apart
