Eskimo - English editing.

In recent years, the word Eskimo has come to be regarded as offensive (partly through the associations of the now discredited folk etymology ‘one who eats raw flesh’). The peoples inhabiting the regions from the central Canadian Arctic to western Greenland prefer to call themselves Inuit. The term Eskimo, however, continues to be the only term which can be properly understood as applying to the people as a whole and is still widely used in anthropological and archaeological contexts.
