Inari Saami language

Inari Saami is spoken by appr. 300 people in the municipality of Inari in Finland. Geographically as well as linguistically it is situated in the center of the Saami areal continuum. The neighbouring Saami languages are North Saami in the west and Skolt Saami in the east. In fact, the municipality of Inari is a community where all the three Saami languages as well as Finnish are spoken in the same areas next to each other.

According to the primary division of the Saami languages to western and eastern group Inari Saami is considered as the first eastern Saami language neighbouring the easternmost western Saami language, the North Saami. All the characteristics that distinguish the eastern Saami languages from the western are also present in Inari Saami: the most important of these characteristics are the following: 1) the Proto-Saami consonant cluster -*sk- is represented by -*sk- in the eastern languages and by -ik- in the west (Inari kuo*ska ~ NorthSaami guoika rapids ) and the Proto-Saami -*st- by -*st- and -it- respectively 2) The sibilants between vowels undergo qualitative gradation in the east but only quantitative gradation in the west (Inari (arch.) keezzist in the summer ~ North Saami geasis id. from Inari keessi, North Saami geassi summer ) 3) The Proto-Saami half-long and long nasals between vowels have been preserved in the east but in the west they have changed to a cluster of homorganic stop + nasal (Inari suona sinew , jie*na ice cf. North Saami suotna, jieŋna). Further characteristics that distinguish Inari Saami from the other Eastern Saami languages are 4) the gradation of Proto-Saami *-k-: in Inari the alternation is -h- in the strong grade and -v- in the weak grade (e.g. juuha river : Locative juuvvâst, cf. Skolt jokk: jooǥǥâst, North Saami johka: jogas id.) . Other instances of *-k- also are represented by -h- in Inari, e.g. ákku grandmother : Genitive ááhu. 5) Inari Saami is the only Eastern Saami language which has preserved the final unstressed vowels in the second syllable (kyeli fish ~ Skolt kueˊll).

The noun in Inari Saami has 8 case endings in the singular and 7 in the Plural. The system is very near to that of the North Saami with the exception of the partitive case which is lacking in the north (but present for example in the Skolt Saami). Genitive and Accusative are separate in the Plural unlike in the North Saami where the Proto-Saami partitive case has taken the function of both Genitive and Accusative, and as a consequence of this there is no separate Partitive case in the plural (Partitive functioning as the AccPl in Inari): kyeli fish

In the possessive declension somewhat fewer forms are in use. There is no distinction between Singular, dual and plural possessor, only the 1., 2. and 3. persons are distinguished. Examples of forms of the word nieiddâ daughter : Nominative nieiddâm my/our daughter , nieiddâd your daughter , nieiddâs his/her/their daughter , Locative singular forms nieidâstân, nieidâstâd, nieidâstis and Comitative singular forms nieiddâinân, nieiddâinâd, nieiddâinis respectively. The case endings have merged so that in the series of plural possessed there are only three cases: Genitive-Accusative-Illative, Comitative and Locative.

The verb is inflected in the same categories as in North Saami: examples from the present tense Indicative with the corresponding personal pronouns of the actor:

mun moonâm I go
tun moonâh you (1 person) go
sun mana he/she goes
muoi manneen we (2) go
tuoi monnâvittee you (2) go
suoi moonnau they (2) go
mii moonnap we (several) go
dii monnavitte*d you (several) go
sii maneh they (several) go
