How do you say goodnight in Alaskan Native Language?

It's impossible to give you a single "goodnight" in Alaskan Native Language because Alaska has 20 different federally recognized Native languages. Each of these languages has its own unique way of saying "goodnight."

To give you an example, here are a few:

* Inupiaq: "Quyanaaqpait" (pronounced: KOO-ya-naq-pait)

* Yup'ik: "Tunuva"

* Tlingit: "X̱aat k'i"

* Haida: "G̱aanaa"

* Dena'ina: "Keghíinaa"

To find the correct greeting in a specific language, you'll need to specify which Alaskan Native language you're interested in.

Here are some resources that might be helpful:

* The Alaska Native Language Center: [https://www.alaskanative.net/](https://www.alaskanative.net/)

* The Alaska Native Language Preservation and Revitalization Act: [https://www.doi.gov/oia/programs/alaska-native-language-preservation-and-revitalization-act](https://www.doi.gov/oia/programs/alaska-native-language-preservation-and-revitalization-act)

I hope this helps!
