This was one of those where even with a couple letters in the right places there were still multiple options ... as FMan's grid shows.

My father and sister couldn't solve this one, either. Tough one. I got lucky with the right combo of letters, but lost my streak with HOUND last week after going through all the other options with the first letter.

The other day we had KAYAK as the word. As usual, I took one or more guesses than I should have to figure out a word that had a non-Romance or Germanic origin, but ... I figured that the particular consonants and their placements would suggest it was from a Native American language, presumably from Western Canada. Inuit, I figured.

But I was right and wrong. The word is apparently borrowed from Greenlandic. Color me surprised that there is such a language, but that's what the language of Native peoples of Greenland is called. Not the Nordic Greenlanders, but the Native Americans of Greenland are apparently (generally speaking) ethnically Inuit too. That's a wide diaspora for a group to cover and retain a similar language.
