The Sámi language is a group of Uralic languages spoken by the Sámi people, who inhabit parts of northern Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Russia. It consists of several distinct languages, including Northern Sámi, Southern Sámi, and Inari Sámi, each with its own unique characteristics and dialects.
Sámi languages are an essential part of Sámi culture and identity, reflecting the rich traditions and history of the Sámi people. Efforts are ongoing to revitalize and promote these languages, which face challenges due to historical suppression and the dominance of national languages in the region.
