Inuit counting refers to the numerical systems used by the Inuit people, indigenous to the Arctic regions of Canada, Greenland, and Alaska. Their counting system is often based on a base-20 structure, which means they count in groups of twenty. This system reflects their environment and lifestyle, where counting items like seals or fish is essential for survival. Inuit counting includes unique words for numbers, often incorporating descriptive elements. For example, they may use specific terms for counting objects like snow, whales, or caribou. This method of counting is practical and closely tied to their cultural practices and daily activities.
