Meŋ la nyɛ

• Angakkuq
• First sunrise

Notes

• ^aThis would only apply in those areas where the sun rose on December 24. Many circumpolar peoples live above the Arctic Circle, experience polar night, and thus have no sunrise on December 24. For example the Copper Inuit who lived in the Umingmaktok area (67°41′45″N 107°56′45″W) did not see the sunrise between (approximately) December 12 and 29. Due to this reason, the day of the first natural sunrise marks the end of Quviasukvik.
