@raakone Akka meant mom but began to be used to mean grandma because of how older people referred to their mothers.

Maybe one reason the term "Inuit" is getting more popular, wonder what that means.

My sister and I, both in our 30s, still sing this song.

@HeAvEnLyStAyFLy I've heard different opions whether or not she said "mother" or "grandmother" with that word!

I love this song. I'm curious, the way the tune sounds....did Joe Raposo compose it? Anyways, nice seeing this again....especially since I have a better udnerstanding of the Inuit now.
