Yup'ik Teaching Moment - Qaneryaraq “Words of Wisdom.”

Calista Education & Culture, Inc. (CECI) presents the Yup’ik Teaching Moment in our Storyknife newsletter. CECI highlights Yuuyaraq, the traditional/cultural way of being in our Region. Yup’ik Teaching Moment is provided from an interview conducted by Mark John, CECI Cultural Advisor with the late Raphael Jimmy.
A person, an Elder or a boy, no matter where they may go, if they thoroughly understand the qaneryaraq (Gahn-nuh-yah-uk) [or ‘words of wisdom,’ or ‘traditional sayings’ in Yup’ik], they will not hear another qaneryaraq.
Qaneryaraq (Gahn-nuh-yah-uk) is the Yup’ik word for “Words of Wisdom.”
