esquimau
"Esquimau" is a term used in French language that corresponds to "Eskimo" in English. This term generally refers to the native people who inhabit the circumpolar region from eastern Siberia (Russia), across Alaska (United States), Canada, and Greenland. The term is however considered pejorative and outdated, with "Inuit" and "Yupik" being the preferred names for these groups.
