Apparently Rosetta Stone has made a program for Iñupiaq, my favorite language, which unfortunately, is endangered. As the only resources I can think of can be counted on one hand and most of those are homemade, any addition to my resource list is a welcome one. You guys can enjoy a free demo of it here.

Thank you for sharing! I had never heard spoken Iñupiaq before so this was very interesting. Based simply on the first lesson, it actually seems easier than I would have thought. I didn't know that Iñupiaq has the dual, though.

Aġnaiyaak taiguaqtuk.
Aġnaiyaat taiguaqtut.

That doesn't seem too hard...

Ellasevia- Good eyes! Iñupiaq does have the dual.

I also did request it to be added a couple of weeks ago but Greenlandic does well enough as a temporary replacement.
