As to the Central Regions certainly lists of words are given
referring to different tribes, but too incomplete to represent
different dialects, for which reason the words have been compiled
as belonging to one tongue. Finally the Greenland language
always has been treated as one dialect, with remarks now and
then on «provincialisms». Only recently the Danish expedition
to East Greenland brought home excellent notes on the words
used here different from West Greenland.
