saskaq: (SUSS-guq): (n): cup
Sindy, hand me that saskaq please. The one with the tuntu on it. No, the other one.
NOTES:
Cup'ik people spell 'saskaq' differently; its 'caskaq' in Cup'ik (JUSS-guq)--their dialect has more of a Russian influence.
If you change the 'k' to an 's,' you get 'sass'aq' which means 'clock.' Keep the 'k' and keep the cup. saskaq
rants. raves. these are confessions of a madman. take action today. the sands of time wait for no one.
