Has Denmark shipped any of their Niggers and Muslims to Greenland yet? Greenland is a beatiful and massive country, but if Frederick and Mary ship a million of Denmarks Niggers and Muslims there, and put people under Sharia Law like they do in Denmark it wouldn't be nice there any longer. Muslims would put the eskimos under Sharia law without hesitation, all of a sudden, they would forget about the vikings and christians real fast. Take care people, hope to visit Greenland one day..
lol :) She's probably greenlandic. I think she always has been. (I can tell by the way she speaks. I'm a greenlandic too) She doesn't seem like a traditional greenlandic in the looks. A lot of greenlandics have the looks similar to people from Europe or USA. I mean bright skin, blue or green eyes. Even blondes and redheads. It's because some vikings settled up there a long time ago. Therefore a lot of people up there has nordic ancestors and their genes have... You know.
@Peppepoppldoppl You need to stop being so prejuidice and judgemental. We are all of the same race- the human race- though one may be a different color, gender, or have a different genotype or phototype. We all come from the same, and grouping us as you do in your mind will get you no where, and make you a short and ignorant fool. Open your eyes; realize that all of our hearts will always race as one.
@Peppepoppldoppl Americans speak their own dialect of english, just like British speak their own version, i.e. yank, bloody, snogg, and all that other stuff most American's and Australian's are not fluent with. Stop insulting America; you obviously know nothing about the country or it's people. Sounds like you watch a little to much T.V. and need to do a bit more experiencing
i am american, we dont like to show off or anything we just like to haveing what we want, we work hard for it just as anyone else does and we help out anyone and everyone too, we pledge over 800 billion us dollars a year to the rest of the world
@brycet91 I m not so sure I agree with you as a fellow American..... I think a lot of Americans think they world owns them and acts like there all big a mighty and arrogant. Were not the best country in the world as fellow Americans think we are.
@ciupanezu4u they don't want to. They benefit being part of Denmark, and they will never want to be independent from Denmark when they already are independent.
@Peppepoppldoppl So basically if Greenland wants to become it's own nation it would not be able to survive without Denmark? Basically Greenland needs Denmark?
1. Stop talking about what languages are easy to learn and which are harder. There is no such thing as a world’s hardest language. Norwegian is easier for a Swede to learn than a Chinese and Greenlandic is easier for a speaker of Inuktitut than for an English speaker.
2. Stop comparing Greelandic to Germanic and Finno-Ugric languages. Scandinavian langs are Germanic, Finnish and Estonian are Finno-Ugric and Greenlandic Eskimo-Aleut.
@ciupanezu4u if something is gay its Romanian, by the way, Scandinavians and Greenlanders don't generally hate each other, they are developed countries; unlike poor gay anal banana Romania where you fuck goats and live in the shit.
@ciupanezu4u who the fuck wants a BMW or a Mercedes when that is everyday fodder and when you can buy classic cars, muscle cars, sport cars, water jets, PWC, ATV, Tractors, Guns, Accessories, Bikes, Quad-Bikes, Houses, Boats, Yachts, or anything that comes to mind. BMW and Mercedes is a normal sight here in Scandinavia. We don't need images to make us look good, like Romanians are desperate for. (Airports, "new" cars, clothes). Our lives here are not dedicated to increase image.
@Peppepoppldoppl Are you seriously ridiculing people for being poor? You spew out poison because the poison is inside of you. Getting it out this way relieves your frustration and makes you feel better about yourself.
@zoeyjusko apparently.....that never happened....apparently you can't understand....in fact....I am at your house right now.....we met before, remember me? zoeyjusko, you need to educate yourself in the english language, I am making a statement, ridiculing is not part of this topic....but you doo remember me, don't you?
@ciupanezu4u people in Scandinavia do not get scammed on the internet by Romanians, you are mixing us with Americans and Brits. (And Romanians). You are not more of a man because you steal and violate people. You are more of an ape than a developed man.
Have you ever noticed how we never really talk about Greenland? I always knew it was a country, but always thought of it as a big ass ice cap. Just putting that out there.
Stop talking about Estonian, Swedish, Finish or other Scandinavian/Eropean language. The closest you get to Greenlandic is native Canadian (Inuktitut) or native Alaskan (Yu'pik). Greenlandic is said to be one of the hardest languages to laern in the world.

To my ears, Greenlandic has the same cadences as Japanese. Now, I know that Turkish, Hungarian, the Baltic languages, and Finnish are classed as Euro-Altaic languages, and are structured similarly with Korean and Japanese. I have wondered whether the Ainu of Northern Japan are Inuit as well, and if their language is mutually intelligible with Alaskan, Canadian and Greenlandic Inuit people. This is so fascinating to me.

-Turkish: Might be Altaic, as it's only a proposed family. Probably sprachbund with Mongolic and Tungusic languages.
lol are u stuped, all people in Greenland speak it (like 95%), there is even greenland metal watch?v=1Ibekme0MJI so no greenland is trying to make the locals want to stay in greenland and learn language when most greenland eskimos many years ago got jelous when they see western things on tv
Most of the Scandinavian languages are easy. Once you know one, you know them all, pretty much. I'm fluent in Norwegian and I understand quite a bit from Swedish and Danish, but Finnish is something different, a lot closer to Kalaallisut.
Greenlandic is not a Scandinavian language, though. Scandinavian languages are Indo-European. Finnish is also not a Scandinavian or Indo-European language (it's Uralic, like Estonian, Hungarian, Udmurt, etc). Greenlandic is neither Indo-European nor Uralic, it is Eskimo-Aleut, related to the the other Eskimo-Aleut languages of Canada and far east Russia like Inuit and Yup'ik. Knowing Finnish will not help you to learn any Eskimo-Aleut language, including Greelandic.
I don't mean to be rude, but your reply makes little sense.
I wasn't attacking your comparison(?). If you meant that Finnish is a lot closer to Kalaallisut in difficulty, that would make sense, but I thought it would be very unlikely you meant it that way, so -I- thought that -you- thought Kalaallisut and Finnish were related, which I simply had to correct.
As I heard Greenlandic language is the hardest language to learn in the whole world. But for me, it´s my mother language, second dansih third english.
And as flRBN just saying no critic, but Hungarian it is not. :)
I agree ungazik as it´s sometimes can incorporate French, but I don´t understand them at all, just that sometimes there can be a word sounds just like Greenlandic.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Can't tell ya, It was my primary language. My hole family is of (in American terms) "Whitey" decent so my dad taught me english while we were hunting on the ice. Also not many pure "whiteys" in Greenland anymore. I think there was some inbreeding in my familiy........oh dear god.
Can't speak dutch to save my life. SLAVE NO LONGER lol!
You should see the faces of the black Americans when I tell them that I'm a dutch slave. They get this look like "OH HELL NO! WHITEY DID NOT JUST SAY THAT!!!!"
hee hee try one of America's many native languages. they're somewhat difficult yet fun to learn! :))
I'm learning the Cree language (nehiyawewin) as it is part of my heritage. but one i would like to try is Inuktitut (which may relate with the greenlandic language in some ways). :))
the hardest is english. not mandarin (for most ppl on earth that are non-english speakers (including europeans) it is hardest langauge one earth. for english speakers already its mandarin (usually, if you include writing).
@bulgogi123ify ehhhmm that is bullshit... for me as Swedish speaker English is not that difficult to learn. if you are a Germanic speaker or a Romance speaker English is not the hardest in the bunch. Difficulty in language depends what native tounge you have. How the grammer and phonetic system of your mother tounge determens that.
What makes you think English is the most difficult in the world?
@Eopyk i just thought that since it's hard to spell. like its tongue not tounge. and determines (not determens). and the a and the thing. it's as for me as a Swedish speaker. I'm not trying to trash your English by the way (it's good) but I just think it's very difficult. That's just my thoughts though. I like the Swedish language. :)
@bulgogi123ify hey my girlfriend is swedish and speaks it very well. im thinking of learning it too, but it seems very complex to me. was it easy for you to learn swedish or are you swedish? :)
@bulgogi123ify I agree that English may not have the most logical writting system
And well it depends on what mother tounge you have.. If a Japanese speaker tried to learn Swedish it would be much harder then let say an English speaker who would tough have it harder then a Danish and Norewegian speaker. Language difficult is very hard to discuse because ones mother tounge determines the difficulty but for you as an English speaker I would not say Swedish would be any serious problem overall.
@bulgogi123ify I can add tough that I have heard that Hungarian and Icelandic and some few others where known to be very difficult for nonenatives speaker unless they knew something similear before hand. Don't take my work for it tough this is just something I have heard.
@bulgogi123ify I'm a native English speaker who is learning Swedish. Contrary to popular belief, it is actually quite an easy language to learn. A lot of the vocabulary is very similar to English words; some even identical. The grammar is very easy in some areas (e.g. verb conjugations) but a bit trickier in others. The hardest thing about it is probably getting the pronunciation right, as some of the tonal sounds the Swedes can make sound quite alien to us.
@bulgogi123ify try learning Russian or Finnish... you will be surprised at how excessively simple the English language is in comparison with Uralic or Slavic languages... or try learning Basque... it's a nightmare for foreigners.
@MrLuisc7 Do not forgot tough that if one let's say speaks Finnish then Estonian would overall be easier than English for a Finn :)
Basque is of course very difficult but one must remember that since basqie as no modern living relative it gives it a special place. As said before language difficult is very much based on what mother tounge or what you can speak already :) Japanese is not easy for English speakers that same thing is true the other way around :)
@Eopyk I am speaking about grammatical difficulty; not lexical similarity; such that English is extremely easy because it has no real grammatical case system while Russian has 6, German has 4 and Finnish has like 12; so my point is not on the difficulty of learning the language, but on the complexity of its grammar and such; in which case English is not among the complex languages of the world and I can not see why anyone with no contact in neither Finnish nor English would find English harder.
@MrLuisc7 I would argue that an Estonian( sister language to Finnish ) would find it easier to learn Finnish then English. I know that Finns have a hard time with English prounciation that differs greatly from Finnish. I know Finns can have problem with prepositions as well since Finnish do not use prepositions that is one of the larger problem when I know finns learn Swedish for an example.
But yeah English may no longer cases but it can still express the same ideas in a diffrent way.
@MrLuisc7 But for most people overall i would say that Finnish would be more of a problem for specific reason and be harder for us overall then most languages in Europe because it is not Indo-European for an example it's basic structure is very allien to us in it's basic structure and as you say it has a fairly complex case system. .
I suspect there are indeed some structural, typological similarities. As I know, genalogic relatedness has not been proven (although there were attempts).
I am native Hungarian, and I also began to learn Sireniki Eskimo and Ungazigmi dialect of Siberian Yupik. Remarkable similarities: Posessive suffixes of nouns, transitive and intransitive conjugation of verbs, verb incorporating person of object. Some differences: Hungarian lacks dual number (some say there are traces), and ergative structure
I do not know this language, what I have seen of it, but I know it is related to the Eskimo languages I am learning. As for them, they have indeed polysysnthetic features, they have indeeed interesting constructs (ergative structure, transitivity expressed morphologically).
But all these do not automatically imply any "metaphysical" difficulties. Till now, I have not faced any metaphysical obstacles in Ungazigmi, nor in Sireniki Eskimo (I admit, I am only a beginner).
Also Esperanto can express several things morphologically, for which most other languages have to resort to lexical tools. Esperanto has too plethora of affixes, possibly made into long series of affixes around the root, "enlitiĝi" for going to bed, constructed as "inside-bed-becoming".
Also French can incorporate object into the verb, with enclitic words that never stand standalone (Je t'aime).
Also an English-based pidgin expresses transitivity morphologically.
In summary, I think, in learning Siberian Yupik variants, the ability to understand the essential story line in folklore texts can be achieved in a reasonable time.
What little I know of Greenladic, I conjecture that the situation is similar in this aspect.
Is it true that sexual promiscuity is regarded as completely acceptable in Greenland (in fact the whole of the arctic circle)? If so, book me on the next plane.
I read somewhere that if you aren't born and raised speaking Kalaallisut, it's almost impossible to learn later in life. Still, I wish I could speak it!
I dont think think its impossible to learn, but almost impossible to speak like a native. But I guess thats how it is in every foreign language you try to learn when youre grown up..
For Siberian Eskimo dialects, there are a huge number of Russian manuals. For the Ungazigmi dialect of Siberian Yupik: vocabulary, grammar, chrestomatia (consisting of tales). Considerable amount of educational (Russian) material also for Sireniki Eskimo (a special Eskimo idiom in Siberia, some classify it as a standalone third branch, alongside Inuit and Yupik). Books of Рубцова and Меновщиков are easily available in Russia and Hungary (and I suspect, in Eastern Europa).
As for English-written literature, and manuals for Yupik dialect of Alaska, and as for Inuit languages: I know almost nothing about the topic, because I began my way to Eskimo languages with those once spoken in Siberia: Ungazigmi is endangered, Sireniki Eskimo has gone extinct in 1997.
As for hardness of learning them, I am not a good witness, becasue I got an undeserved golden way to Eskimo languages. Learning was as if learning Hungarian: different words, but sometimes similar structures.
Its a cool language. We learnt it at school there many years ago, and was dificult then...let alone know. Well done. And Greenlandic girls are very beautiful.
OMG that sounds so faking hard. I only know 1 sentence in greenlandic : Sumingeerneerpit or somin like that. it means somin like were do you come from
Just wanted to say that as a direct result of seeing this video, I'm planning on doing some linguistic research in Greenland over the next two years and doing my undergraduate thesis on morphology in polysynthetic languages (with a focus on Kalaallisut) ;)
@soraya1988 my focus shifted to Bolivian Quechua because it was too hard to get information for English speakers on West Greenlandic. I found literally like less than half a dozen texts. I did end up doing a cool paper for an etymology class on the Inuit dialect chain, but it was pretty generic. I still want to go to Greenland at some point though.
sounds like an mix of finnish and arabic

Most of the Scandinavian languages are easy. Once you know one, you know them all, pretty much. I'm fluent in Norwegian and I understand quite a bit from Swedish and Danish, but Finnish is something different, a lot closer to Kalaallisut.
Kirara9245 2 years ago
Greenlandic is not a Scandinavian language, though. Scandinavian languages are Indo-European. Finnish is also not a Scandinavian or Indo-European language (it's Uralic, like Estonian, Hungarian, Udmurt, etc). Greenlandic is neither Indo-European nor Uralic, it is Eskimo-Aleut, related to the the other Eskimo-Aleut languages of Canada and far east Russia like Inuit and Yup'ik. Knowing Finnish will not help you to learn any Eskimo-Aleut language, including Greelandic.

I was talking to Chad about the "swedish & norwegian" bit.
Kirara9245 2 years ago
@Kirara9245
Finnish is an Uralic language and Swedish, Norwegian and Danish are Indo-European, North Germanic languages.
And Kalaallisut is in no way related to Finnish...it's an Eskimo-Aleut language.

@MorrisMerkx Apparently you failed to see my comparison.

@Kirara9245
I don't mean to be rude, but your reply makes little sense.
I wasn't attacking your comparison(?). If you meant that Finnish is a lot closer to Kalaallisut in difficulty, that would make sense, but I thought it would be very unlikely you meant it that way, so -I- thought that -you- thought Kalaallisut and Finnish were related, which I simply had to correct.

It would be great if she could speak many more languages, especially some constructed ones, and even create some of her own.

As I heard Greenlandic language is the hardest language to learn in the whole world. But for me, it´s my mother language, second dansih third english.
And as flRBN just saying no critic, but Hungarian it is not. :)
I agree ungazik as it´s sometimes can incorporate French, but I don´t understand them at all, just that sometimes there can be a word sounds just like Greenlandic.

Can't tell ya, It was my primary language. My hole family is of (in American terms) "Whitey" decent so my dad taught me english while we were hunting on the ice. Also not many pure "whiteys" in Greenland anymore. I think there was some inbreeding in my familiy........oh dear god.
Can't speak dutch to save my life. SLAVE NO LONGER lol!
You should see the faces of the black Americans when I tell them that I'm a dutch slave. They get this look like "OH HELL NO! WHITEY DID NOT JUST SAY THAT!!!!"

bulgogi123ify 2 years ago
@bulgogi123ify ehhhmm that is bullshit... for me as Swedish speaker English is not that difficult to learn. if you are a Germanic speaker or a Romance speaker English is not the hardest in the bunch. Difficulty in language depends what native tounge you have. How the grammer and phonetic system of your mother tounge determens that.
What makes you think English is the most difficult in the world?
Eopyk 2 years ago 8
@Eopyk i just thought that since it's hard to spell. like its tongue not tounge. and determines (not determens). and the a and the thing. it's as for me as a Swedish speaker. I'm not trying to trash your English by the way (it's good) but I just think it's very difficult. That's just my thoughts though. I like the Swedish language. :)

@bulgogi123ify hey my girlfriend is swedish and speaks it very well. im thinking of learning it too, but it seems very complex to me. was it easy for you to learn swedish or are you swedish? :)

@Eopyk Is Swedish hard to learn? (forgot to ask lol)
bulgogi123ify 1 year ago
@bulgogi123ify I agree that English may not have the most logical writting system
And well it depends on what mother tounge you have.. If a Japanese speaker tried to learn Swedish it would be much harder then let say an English speaker who would tough have it harder then a Danish and Norewegian speaker. Language difficult is very hard to discuse because ones mother tounge determines the difficulty but for you as an English speaker I would not say Swedish would be any serious problem overall.
Eopyk 1 year ago
@bulgogi123ify I can add tough that I have heard that Hungarian and Icelandic and some few others where known to be very difficult for nonenatives speaker unless they knew something similear before hand. Don't take my work for it tough this is just something I have heard.
Eopyk 1 year ago
@bulgogi123ify I'm a native English speaker who is learning Swedish. Contrary to popular belief, it is actually quite an easy language to learn. A lot of the vocabulary is very similar to English words; some even identical. The grammar is very easy in some areas (e.g. verb conjugations) but a bit trickier in others. The hardest thing about it is probably getting the pronunciation right, as some of the tonal sounds the Swedes can make sound quite alien to us.

@bulgogi123ify try learning Russian or Finnish... you will be surprised at how excessively simple the English language is in comparison with Uralic or Slavic languages... or try learning Basque... it's a nightmare for foreigners.
MrLuisc7 1 year ago
@MrLuisc7 Do not forgot tough that if one let's say speaks Finnish then Estonian would overall be easier than English for a Finn :)
Basque is of course very difficult but one must remember that since basqie as no modern living relative it gives it a special place. As said before language difficult is very much based on what mother tounge or what you can speak already :) Japanese is not easy for English speakers that same thing is true the other way around :)
Eopyk 1 year ago
@Eopyk I am speaking about grammatical difficulty; not lexical similarity; such that English is extremely easy because it has no real grammatical case system while Russian has 6, German has 4 and Finnish has like 12; so my point is not on the difficulty of learning the language, but on the complexity of its grammar and such; in which case English is not among the complex languages of the world and I can not see why anyone with no contact in neither Finnish nor English would find English harder.
MrLuisc7 1 year ago
@MrLuisc7 I would argue that an Estonian( sister language to Finnish ) would find it easier to learn Finnish then English. I know that Finns have a hard time with English prounciation that differs greatly from Finnish. I know Finns can have problem with prepositions as well since Finnish do not use prepositions that is one of the larger problem when I know finns learn Swedish for an example.
But yeah English may no longer cases but it can still express the same ideas in a diffrent way.
Eopyk 1 year ago
@MrLuisc7 But for most people overall i would say that Finnish would be more of a problem for specific reason and be harder for us overall then most languages in Europe because it is not Indo-European for an example it's basic structure is very allien to us in it's basic structure and as you say it has a fairly complex case system. .

Sounds like Hungarian to me
fIRBN 3 years ago
I suspect there are indeed some structural, typological similarities. As I know, genalogic relatedness has not been proven (although there were attempts).
I am native Hungarian, and I also began to learn Sireniki Eskimo and Ungazigmi dialect of Siberian Yupik. Remarkable similarities: Posessive suffixes of nouns, transitive and intransitive conjugation of verbs, verb incorporating person of object. Some differences: Hungarian lacks dual number (some say there are traces), and ergative structure
ungazik 3 years ago
Greenlandic looks incredibly hard.
VanSensei 3 years ago
I do not know this language, what I have seen of it, but I know it is related to the Eskimo languages I am learning. As for them, they have indeed polysysnthetic features, they have indeeed interesting constructs (ergative structure, transitivity expressed morphologically).
But all these do not automatically imply any "metaphysical" difficulties. Till now, I have not faced any metaphysical obstacles in Ungazigmi, nor in Sireniki Eskimo (I admit, I am only a beginner).
ungazik 3 years ago
Also Esperanto can express several things morphologically, for which most other languages have to resort to lexical tools. Esperanto has too plethora of affixes, possibly made into long series of affixes around the root, "enlitiĝi" for going to bed, constructed as "inside-bed-becoming".
Also French can incorporate object into the verb, with enclitic words that never stand standalone (Je t'aime).
Also an English-based pidgin expresses transitivity morphologically.
ungazik 3 years ago
In summary, I think, in learning Siberian Yupik variants, the ability to understand the essential story line in folklore texts can be achieved in a reasonable time.
What little I know of Greenladic, I conjecture that the situation is similar in this aspect.

For Siberian Eskimo dialects, there are a huge number of Russian manuals. For the Ungazigmi dialect of Siberian Yupik: vocabulary, grammar, chrestomatia (consisting of tales). Considerable amount of educational (Russian) material also for Sireniki Eskimo (a special Eskimo idiom in Siberia, some classify it as a standalone third branch, alongside Inuit and Yupik). Books of Рубцова and Меновщиков are easily available in Russia and Hungary (and I suspect, in Eastern Europa).
ungazik 3 years ago
As for English-written literature, and manuals for Yupik dialect of Alaska, and as for Inuit languages: I know almost nothing about the topic, because I began my way to Eskimo languages with those once spoken in Siberia: Ungazigmi is endangered, Sireniki Eskimo has gone extinct in 1997.
As for hardness of learning them, I am not a good witness, becasue I got an undeserved golden way to Eskimo languages. Learning was as if learning Hungarian: different words, but sometimes similar structures.

Just wanted to say that as a direct result of seeing this video, I'm planning on doing some linguistic research in Greenland over the next two years and doing my undergraduate thesis on morphology in polysynthetic languages (with a focus on Kalaallisut) ;)

Well, it's 2 years later;) How's it going??
soraya1988 2 years ago
@soraya1988 my focus shifted to Bolivian Quechua because it was too hard to get information for English speakers on West Greenlandic. I found literally like less than half a dozen texts. I did end up doing a cool paper for an etymology class on the Inuit dialect chain, but it was pretty generic. I still want to go to Greenland at some point though.
