Yup'ik word of the day--elisngaq

elisngaq (LIZ-ng'uq): learned; smart

Gee whiz, that Sindy! So elisngaq! She knows how to drive in Ankritz. And she never even get lost. Oh, maybe two times only! I wiss I was as elisngaq as Sindy!

NOTES:
The word 'elisngaq' comes from the base word 'elite-', which means 'to learn.'

They're not joking when they say reading will make you elisngaq. I recently bought Wired magazine. There's alot of cool information in there.

'Elitnaurvik' (LIT-now'gg-vick) means 'a place to learn.' elisngaq.
