Greenlandic is the English name for the Inuit (Eastern Eskimo) dialects of Greenland (the Inuit term is Kalaallisut). Of the seventy-nine Inuit communities in Greenland, all but seventeen are on the west coast, including the largest, Nuuk. (Golla 2007).

MAIS COMENTÁRIOS		There is a significant dialect difference between the west coast settlements and those on the east coast, leading to a distinction between West Greenlandic and East Greenlandic. The five Thule communities in the far northwest of the island constitute a third dialect cluster, sometimes called Polar Eskimo. This dialect is closer to the speech of Baffin Island than to West or East Greenlandic, and is usually considered to be a variety of Eastern Canadian Inuktitut that has been influenced by standard Greenlandic. (Golla 2007)

Greenland, which became an autonomous province associated with the Danish Commonwealth in 1979, has a population of about 56,000, approximately 10,000 of whom are Danes. The remaining 46,000 are Inuit, nearly all of them speakers of Greenlandic. Another 7,000 speakers of Greenlandic live in Denmark, most of them in Copenhagen.

COMENTÁRIOS SOBRE O CONTEXTO DO IDIOMA: Since Home Rule in 1979 Greenland’s official language has been Greenlandic (standardized to the Nuuk dialect of West Greenlandic, and written in a roman orthography), although Danish still predominates in administration, the media and education.
Ortografia: A writing system was introduced by early Danish missionaries; the literacy rate is very high and there has been a flourishing literature in Greenlandic for over 200 years.
