Inuktitut phrase book tackles language barrier for visitors

So this is what Fraser has been doing in his spare time since he moved back home with Ray--writing phrasebooks!

Ray: Well, I'll be. The Inuit really don't have three hundred words for snow.
Fraser: I've been telling you the very same thing for years (repeatedly, I may add, although to be completely honest, you were asleep during some of those times).
Ray: Fraser, stop talking in parentheses. Nobody talks in parentheses.
Fraser: Understood.

Hey! As someone who talks (or posts) in parenthesis quite regularly...I resemble that remark! :-)

And yes, Fraser would totally do that in his spare time, the big nerd.

Yeah, I do that, too. Fraser talks a lot like I write. He's much more articulate when he talks, though.

(P.S. Happy Hanukkah!)
