Rani, you are correct on the location. According to Deepthie, the photo was taken in Arctic Quebec, in the town of Kangiqsuallujjuaq! – where the spoken language is Inuktitut. Sam
Rani- you are REAL smart to nail the location as Quebec . !!
This is Arctic Quebec- where the main language is Inuktitut spoken by the Inuit people in Arctic Quebec ( formerly known as Eskimo- this word is not used anymore — it is a slang cree word to describe these people , like the n word for Afro Americans ) ).
Cree and Inuit were sworn enemies way back when – !
The Inuktitut spelling can have minor variations – from the Province of Nunavut to Province of Quebec.
I will send you a few interesting photos – where the Cree language syllabics are very similar to the syllabics of Inuktitut ., and a photo with different spelling of Inuktitut for STOP- taken in Arctic Bay , Nunavut , about 500 miles north west of Kangiqsuallujuaq.
Congratulations Rani. I am not a traveller. I didn’t have any idea. Deepthie was smart to put up a difficult one, but you killed it ! The language looked like what my 2 yr old grand daughter scribbled on our wall !
