What Language The Inuit do they speak?

The Inuit people speak Inuktitut, which is an Inuit-Unangan language.

It's important to note that:

* Inuktitut is not a single language but a language family. There are several dialects spoken across the Inuit homeland, which spans Canada, Greenland, and Alaska.

* Inuit is the preferred term for the people, rather than "Eskimo," which is considered outdated and potentially offensive.

Here are some examples of the different dialects of Inuktitut:

* Inuktitut (Canada)

* Kalaallisut (Greenland)

* Inupiaq (Alaska)

* Yupik (Alaska and Siberia)

These dialects can be quite different from one another, although speakers can often understand each other.
