The Right Answer
In the Dictionary of the West Greenlandic Eskimo Language (1972) it cites just two words
aput ìsnow on the groundî and qanik ìsnow in the airî
Linguists who actually work on languages of the North are reluctant to enter the debate because of the technical problems mentioned earlier
If terms like Eskimo, word, and snow are not precisely defined it isnít possible to answer a question like, How many words does Eskimo have for snow?
