[edit]

Not sure whether obsolete or archaic is better, but it's certainly worth pointing out that while early English adapted "Groenlandisk" to "Greenlandish", "Greenlandic" is vastly more preferred now. LlywelynII (talk) 02:33, 18 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

I certainly wouldn't call it obsolete, maybe archaic, but Google Books is returning hits on it up through 1959, 1965, 1986, 1996...Granted, it's rare to hear the term applied to the Language nowadays, but to the people and culture of Greenland, no. Leasnam (talk) 03:24, 18 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
