Ethnography is a qualitative method for collecting data often used in the social and behavioral sciences. Data are collected through observations and interviews, which are then used to draw conclusions about how societies and individuals function. Ethnographers observe life as it happens instead of trying to manipulate it in a laboratory. One of the most challenging aspects of Ethnography is obtaining the level of understanding and awareness about the group of individuals being studied. The data used for ethnography is not just notes from observations; it is actually an understanding of a culture and why its members think, act and behave the way they do. Key words: Observation, data analysis, culture and data collecting
At a time when special attention is paid to the protection and development of languages and cultural expressions , which are unique an an irreplaceable cultural heritage of humankind, contemporary sociolinguistic research is urgently required on the policy of ethnic minority languages and to protect, inherit and develop the languages and cultures of ethnic minorities. Indigenous people in the arctic , in collaboration with global communities are working to preserve the indigenous language environment through assessment , monitoring ,assistance and support to maintain the indigenous language transition.
Eskimos are largely defined as these arctic aboriginal groups whose ancestral language belongs to the Eskimo-Aleut linguistic family. There already exists hundreds of studies on the Eskimo-Aleut languages of Greenland, Canada and Alaska, as well as on their linguistic relatives. However, most of these books, reports and articles limit themselves to a purely formal (phonological, grammatical, or lexical) approach to language phenomena. It is true that modern days an increasing number of specialists have become interested in the ethnolinguistic and sociolinguistic aspects of language usage in the Arctic. The ambition of the article is to attempt such an examination of present-day knowledge about the geography, history, semantic, sociology of the language from Alaska to Canada and Greenland.
Language extends far beyond mere words spoken or written; it's a rich tapestry interwoven with gestures, grammar, spelling, pronunciation, and vocabulary, all working in harmony to convey thoughts and meanings. Through the evolution of language and the nurturing of literacy skills, humanity has witnessed profound advancements in various facets of development. The rise and maturation of linguistics stand as a testament to this progress, delving into the intricate study of human language across its historical trajectory, exploring its structures, patterns, and innate characteristics. Moreover, the expansive realm of linguistics unveils the myriad languages spoken across diverse global communities, spanning the ages from ancient tongues to those flourishing in the present day. In essence, linguistics serves as a beacon illuminating the complexities and beauties of human expression, bridging cultures and generations through the profound power of language.
STUDY OF INUIT LANGUAGE This research aims to study the Inuit language, a valuable heritage of Eskimo culture in the world, I the context of ethno-social linguistics. Ethnolinguistics is the study of language in relation to the people, ethnic history, styles, and various social relations and there is a tendency to equate traditional sociolinguistics with modern ethnolinguistics. Lately, the study of ethnic minority linguistics and sociolinguistics has focused on the study of the language and culture of ethnic minorities. The study of Inuit language created by some Eskimos, who are considered a minority in the world having a nomadic lifestyle like the Mongols, leading a scattered lifestyle, and resembling the same origins as the Mongols, is of greater importance in ethnography.
The session will show how a team of Mongolian and Australian teachers manage to blend their cultural teaching styles in order to assist learners to make the transition to autonomous western-style higher education systems. This blending of teaching approaches also enables professional development-in-action for the NUM language lecturers involved in the program.
World language usage has changed dramatically. English is the dominant language of information technology – meanwhile many languages are in danger of disappearing. This presentation will briefly discuss the causes and consequences of endangered languages, and possible solutions for their preservation.
