huh?
This paragraph does not have a coherent meaning. I will delete it if it is not revised. Maybe.
The Nunamiut speak English. Their culture is contrasted by strong collectivist and individualist tendencies, both of which are a reflected in their "uncertainty language game". This involves one of five statements as part of a response: "I don't know," "maybe," "probably," I guess," and "might be." Choosing the neutral "maybe" over "yes" or "no" reflects the cultural importance of a collectivist community. It also reflects behavior avoidance of an individual making a false statement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.68.128.90 (talk) 19:18, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
